Back in 2007, I first learned about the Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet plan. At the time, I was surprised that this program, with its somewhat insulting name, could become as popular as it was. In 2007, I wrote a review about it even before I founded WorldofDiets.com. At the time, more than 100,000 people read the review and I had contact with hundreds of people who asked me questions about the diet.
I later moved the review to this site but the questions kept coming. It seems that people wanted to know more about this diet and how it works. I felt that I should write a section of questions and answers about it that will shed additional light on this diet and how it works. This is what you’re going to read here. I believe that this will help you see exactly what the Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet is all about.
Fat Loss 4 Idiots Q & A
Question: How much weight can I really lose with this program?
Answer: Fat loss 4 Idiots is advertised as a way to lose 9 pounds every 11 days. I have had contact with people who’ve achieved this kind of weight loss but not everyone does so. You may be able to lose 9 pounds during the first 11 days, but you average weight loss is likely to be lower. What I can say that I’ve read a lot of testimonials from people who’ve lost a lot of weight with this plan.
Question: I heard that this diet uses a menu generator. Is it complicated? How does it work?
Answer: The menu software is very simple to operate. It’s run online so you can access it from any computer. What you do is choose a selection of foods you like from a long list of diet approved items. The menu generator takes your selections and combines them into an 11 day menu that you need to follow. Each day you get to eat 4 meals. You just eat according to the menu.
Question: What do I do after the 11 days?
Answer: After you complete the 11 day menu, you get 3 days off the diet to eat what you like. Please do so in moderation but do enjoy yourself. That’s the whole point. Then, you can either do the 11 day menu over or generate a new one.
Question: Is the Beyond Calories additional manual worth it?
Answer: When you order Fat loss 4 Idiots, you have the option of also buying the Beyond Calories program. This is an additional diet method that you can use, this one with 6 meals each day. You don’t have to get this program as the original plan should work very well. However, having the Beyond Calories plan can come in handy and give you more options to follow.
Question: Do I need to buy special foods or supplements?
Answer: No. All the food can be found in supermarkets, is affordable, and no supplements or anything else is necessary.
Question: What do you like about this diet and what don’t you like?
Answer: Personally, I like how simple this diet is. You can get started straightaway. I like how you get 3 days off every two weeks. I also like the fact that this diet has many positive testimonials from many people. I don’t like the fact that the diet downplays the importance of exercise and that it has no support system.
Question: What do you mean no support system?
Answer: This is the biggest downside of the program and is why I wrote my Fat Loss 4 Idiots support guide. The diet doesn’t offer any support. Once you get the diet, you’re supposed to use it as you see fit. I believe that most people don’t have an issue with this fact because the program is very simple. However, it is a disadvantage.
Question: Who is this diet right for and who is it wrong for?
Answer: Fat Loss For Idiots can work for adult men and women of all ages. It has a vegetarian version as well. If you have a condition like diabetes or celiac etc. you should consult with your doctor before you begin any weight loss plan. You should consult with a doctor in any case, that’s the best advice.
Question: How easy it is to maintain your weight loss after you do the diet?
Answer: It’s always a challenge to keep the weight off once you lost it. Because you don’t starve yourself while on this diet plan, I do believe that it won’t be too hard to maintain your weight loss. However, this is up to you. A healthy eating routine and regular exercise is important in that respect.
