There's a no-stress diet plan in the market which claims that you can lose nine (9) pounds in eleven (11) days without strenuous exercise. Fat Loss For Idiots is a diet and weight loss plan for people who are apprehensive about extreme dieting programs. If you've been scared off by some of the extremes that some diet programs recommend for losing belly fat and reducing your weight,Fat Loss For Idiots Review - Can You Really Lose Nine Pounds in Eleven Days? Articles then you might want to take a serious look at this diet plan.

Truth be told, while it is possible to lose nine pounds in eleven days, the average weight loss that participants experience while using this program is between five and eight pounds in eleven days. Just to clarify, this diet program is based around eleven day cycles, which means that every eleven days a new cycle begins. Obviously, for someone who wants to lose fifty pounds (or more), nine pounds in eleven days, while good, is only a drop in the bucket.

Examining this program from the outside looking in, it might on the surface seem an exaggeration that such a relatively benign-looking diet plan could accomplish so much with so little actual work by the participant. After all, participants are not asked to commit to strenuous everyday workouts or to go to extremes in dieting. They are simply asked to eat four meals a day according to the regimen outlined in the program and are recommended to take two 30-minute walks each day. 

That seems reasonable enough. Right? So, how are you supposed to lose weight doing this?

Well, the program is based on a cycling method that is combined from two other books in this genre: The Diet Handbook and Beyond Calories, the latter of which is an addendum of sorts to the Fat Loss For Idiots program, meaning it can be purchased in addition to that program. The heart of the program revolves around calorie shifting or cycling (however you wish to call it). 

Calorie shifting refers to varying the ratio of fat, carbohydrate, and proteins consumed on an eleven day cycle. Portion control is also a part of it as well as eating certain "fat loss conducive" foods. Once a calorie deficit is established and the body has used up all the carbohydrates in the diet, the body then begins tapping into its fat reserves for its energy needs thereby burning excess fat and reducing overall weight.

So, while the average person loses between five to eight pounds over the eleven day cycle if they follow the plan, and not everyone stands a chance of losing nine pounds, five pounds (taking the low end of the scale) really doesn't sound that bad. And if you add it up over a 33 day period, it amounts to fifteen pounds. So, for example, if you're trying to lose thirty pounds using Fat Loss For Idiots, after a month's time you're already half way there. There are certainly worse places you could be.
