Profiles Blog – Profiling the Hottest Daily Topics

Being into my health, I always like to read about new diet plans to hit the market. Personally I don’t really diet as much as work out, remain active, and make sure I’m not overly endulging in the unhealthy foods. My reason for eating properly is to stay healthy more so then to stay in shape. Having said this, staying in shape is easy if you want to remain healthy. It comes with the territory. So here is a brief overview of a diet that I actually think may work. I can’t say that too often:

Fat Smash Diet
The idea behind this diet is that your body needs nutrients, vitamins and minerals. Most of these nutrients are easily found in abundance in fruits and vegetables. Thus, eating as many fruits and vegetables as you wish, and barely any fat, will keep your mind telling you that you don;t need any more food. The hunger pangs vanish and you remain thin.


Here are the 4 steps of the Fat Smash diet:
1. Detox - This phase lasts 9 days. In this phase you will eat mostly fruits and vegetables. The idea is to cleanse your body of junk and you eliminate things like alcohol and caffeine. You can eat all the fruits & veggies you want except white potatoes and avocados. You also can have the following: legumes/beans & tofu, 1 cup of oatmeal, 2 cups of brown rice, 2 cups low fat or 1% milk, 2 6oz yogurts and 4 egg whites (eggbeaters) only water & 2 cups of herbal tea to drink. You also get a very limited amount of olive oil dressing to use.

2. Foundation - This phase lasts 3 weeks. In this phase you eat the same foods as phase I, except you will reintroduce lean meats. Phase 2 is for 3 weeks and you keep everything you are eating in phase I & add in most protein meat chicken turkey fish (except pork), 1 whole egg add unsweetend cereal, 1 oz of cheese, coffee 1 10 oz cup & 2 diet pops a day come back.

3. Construction – This phase lasts 4 weeks. In this phase you eat the same foods as phase I & II except you will reintroduce whole wheat pasta and bread. Phase 3 4 weeks: increase the amounts of protein, adds ff mayo & peanut butter, 2 whole eggs, 3 cups of lf milk now & 1.3 oz of lf/ff cheese, 2 cups of freshly squeezed juice & whole grains bread 4 slices a day, 1 cup of pasta and 1 desert serving per day.

4. The Temple - This phase is for life. In this phase you eat the same foods as phase I,II, & III. In addition to those foods, you can eat some white starches (ie. white rice, potatoes) as well as have a couple of glasses of wine or beer each week. Phase 4 for life every food you want come back including alcohol & all sweets/chips everything. the idea is your able to now handle a snack or high

The great thing about this diet is there is no counting calories or worrying about eating too much. Like it should be, you eat enough to satisfy your cravings and nothing more or less. The “Fat Smash Diet” was found by Dr. Ian Smith who has a strong history in the media. He’s the a medical contributor on ABC’s “The View”, a medical columnist for Men’s Health magazine, and the diet expert on VH1’s “Celebrity Fit Club.” He knows his stuff.
