Idiot Proof Diet Review

idiot-proof-diet-reviewHi, Maria here,

there are a couple of different choices, that you have once you have decided on giving the Idiot Proof Diet a try.

Below you will find my uncensored review on those diet plans, that I am familiar with, since I have tried them myself.

Note that this is a review though, if you are looking for the Idiot Proof Diet handbook website, then click HERE.

Why am I writing this at all?

Well, when I was thinking about buying the Idiot Proof Diet Handbook, there weren’t many real reviews around, just some websites from people, who obviously wanted to sell the plan, but never even tried it.

I did try and succeed with the Idiot Proof Diet and I decided to write this review quickly to help any of you, who are in the same position I was.

But be warned I’ll be going into both the good and the bad points, so if that’s something you might not want to hear, then you may as well leave now.

After trying out countless weight loss products, because I’ve been overweight for the longest time and I desperately wanted to loose some weight, I accidently came across the idiot proof diets.

After a couple of days of online research, I decided to give it a try.

The Idiot Proof diet aka fat loss 4 idiots is based on the fact, that you will eat different amounts of calories each day to confuse your metabolism, which forces your body to burn fat faster.

With the help of the idiot proof diet generator in the members area you can choose your favorite foods and it will then generate your 11 day menu plan.

After 11 days, you get to have 3 cheat days, where you can eat whatever you want to.

Then, if you need to lose more weight, you’ll start over with another 11 days and so on, until you have your desired weight.

I really liked….

  • The EASY and PRACTICAL food choices, for people on the go 
  • That you can eat 4 times a day until you are satisfied, no food cravings here
  • The Idiot Proof Diet plan gives you 3 “cheat days” every 11 days, where you can eat any food your heart desires.
  • It is safe and natural for anyone.
  • You buy your own food, so it doesn’t rip a hole in your budget.
  • No expensive pre-packed foods and supplements to buy.
  • Preparation is easy, you can do it any way you want.
  • Their diet generator counts the calories for you.
  • It’s affordable to buy, no monthly fee, but unlimited access to their online diet generator.
  • The diet plan is easy to understand and easy to follow.

What I did not like so much..

  • They require you to do some light walking every day. Here I did have my issues with, so I only walked 2-3 times a week.  I was really sore in the beginning, but after a while I got used to it. Still don’t like it all that much, but it really helped to speed up the dieting process
  • Every once in a while their Diet Generator gives you some weird choices like eating some cheese together with sour cream. That annoyed me in the beginning quite a bit, but over time I learned, how to overrule the menu plan with something, that actually made sense.

Despite those 2 drawbacks, I have to say, that this diet worked really well for me as you can see in the picture above.

I have lost 75lbs. in just 2 months and I love it.

Curios already? Read more about this great diet by clicking right HERE.

Since I had also bought the add-on they offer, which is called Beyond Calories, I tried that one, too.

I had already made some progress , but really wanted to give it a boost.

With Beyond Calories you are allowed to eat up to 6 times a day and you have a lot more food choices.

It’s pretty much an accelerated version of Calorie Shifting, which you’ll do for 10 days instead of 11 days and

WOW!! I lost 2lbs. more in 10 days, than I had lost my first 11 days.

Now that’s what I really loved, a lot!!

Meanwhile, there is another website and they are basicly offering the same thing.

Main difference is, that they have a TRIAL Version for 1 Month for merely $4.95.

It’s a membership site, so after the initial first month, they’ll charge you $19.95 for each month you’ll stay on as a member.

They have a community support forum, where you can communicate with other diet club members, which is a neat thing, really.

Here is the link to their website, if you would like to take a peek:

Membershipsite w/ Trial Version

I personally stuck with the Original Idiot Proof Diet, because you pay just once and have access to their website and Diet Generator for life and they also have the accelerated version:

If you want to take it easy and need a lot of carbs in your diet, you should start out with their regular plan.

A lot faster is the second plan, where you will be using their online diet generator to speed up the weight loss process.

The third and fastest plan is called “Beyond Calories”, which is an add-on to the regular idiots proof diet.

The Idiot Proof Diet Handbook Rules

idiot-proof-diet-2

Hi, Maria again,

before I’ll start posting some sample Idiot Proof Diet meal plans, I’ll post the general rules provided in the Idiot Proof Diet Handbook.

I will also post some sample Idiot Proof Diet Menu Plans for Vegetarians.

The Idiots Proof Diet changes your calories daily. Every day your calories will be shifted to force fast weight loss.

With the help of the Idiot Proof Diet Generator in the members area you don’t have to count your carbs anymore.

You can select your favorite foods and the diet generator will provide you with an Idiot Proof Diet Menu.

There are no Calorie limits, you are allowed to eat until you are satisfied.

You are allowed to eat 4 meals a day and you can switch around the order in which you eat those meals.

The following drinks are allowed on the idiot proof diet:

  • Diet Sodas
  • Coffee
  • Tea
  • Water

There are a couple of condiments allowed, f.e. ketchup or barbecue sauce to name a few.

  • Drinking a lot of water is mandatory, as it speeds up the weight loss process.
  • You are allowed to drink one glass of wine every day.
  • After every 11 days, you get to have 3 cheat days, where you can eat whatever your heart desires.
  • The only rule is, to not stuff yourself. Even junk food is allowed in those 3 days.
  • After that, you’ll start over with another 11 days.

As you can see, the Idiot Proof Diet is easy to stick with, since you can actually eat a lot and won’t be  hungry at all.

Idiot Proof Diet – How it works

idiot-proof-dietHi, Maria here,

If you haven’t already heard of the Idiot Proof Diet, I will explain below real quick what it is and how it works.

It’s also known by a couple of other names including Fat Loss 4 Idiots and Weight Loss for Idiots.

It is currently one of the most popular online diets, but does the Idiot Proof Diet work? And how does it work?

According to online forums, most people who try it report significant weight loss with the Diet for Idiots.

In order to understand why this diet works while many other types of diets fail, let’s take a look at the science behind it.

The main concept is explained in the Idiot Proof Diet Handbook and  revolves around shifting calories.

Shifting calories basicly means, that you vary the number of calories you eat each day.

However, the Idiot Proof Diet Cookbook takes it one step further and also varies the types of calories that you eat and the times at which you eat the calories.

Why does shifting calories matter?

Well, the problem with most other types of diets including low fat, low carb and “starvation” diets is that they don’t give your body enough calories to use for energy.

Your metabolism compensates for this by slowing down and burning fewer calories. When your metabolism slows down then it becomes harder to lose weight and easier to gain it back when you eventually go off the diet.

The Idiot Proof Diet, though, tricks your metabolism so it doesn’t slow down.

When you vary the number of calories you eat each day your metabolism doesn’t have time to catch on and slow down, so instead it keeps running at it’s normal speed.

What that means is that it is easier and faster to lose weight than on other types of diets, and it is also easier to keep the weight off when you go off the diet. Both of those things are really big bonuses when it comes to weight loss.

According to most of the Idiot Proof Diet Reviews most people lose on average anywhere from 7-10 pounds in each cycle of the diet.

One cycle lasts 11 days, so you go 11 days on the diet and then have 3 days off to “cheat” and eat what you would like.

You just repeat the 11 day cycle as often as you would like until you have lost as much weight as you want to.

When you sign up you get a custom generated diet plan that incorporates the foods that you enjoy which also makes it an easy diet to stick with.

Not only that, but you are eating between 4 and 6 times a day so you won’t feel as hungry as on other diets.
