I've cut and pasted this from a different thread so more people have a chance to read this and avoid a scam
I bought the diet today and i'm certain I will not use it or dare put this many calories in my body. It might work for someone who has a lot of weight to lose but I don't think it will work for me (135 pounds).
I haven't tried it yet so I do not know for a fact whether it works or not.
I will tell you everything I have read and seen so far and I know I will not be starting this diet ever because it's just too many calories for me.
It's NOT what they say when they said it's not a low carb diet because it is a low carb diet and it's not as they say about eating at different times and shifting the way you eat around... I'm an IDIOT for buying this diet! Embarassed

Here is what the idiot proof diet is
Low carb --and we know that's bad for our bodies and bad for our organs and nobody can eat like that forever so even if it works it will be water weight loss and precious muscle tissue!
It is High fat--I never understood this Atkins crap. You want to lose weight so go eat fat but avoid the carbs...riiiight
It is high calories!!!
I actually entered the calories off one of the days into an online calorie counter out of curiosity to see figuring the calories will total to be the same as on a low calorie diet well I'm shocked at how high the calories are!! I mean I don't want to eat THAT many calories because I will gain weight if I do--the caloric intake for that day would be 3000 Calories!! Shocked
Hello if you want to lose 1 pound of fat you have to create a caloric deficit of 3500 calories and if you want to gain one pound of fat you eat 3500 calories so what will I gain if I actually put the foods listed on that day into my body?! Almost 1 pound.


Listen after looking at this program I will gladly cut my loss of 40 dollars and simply go on a low fat calorie reduced diet and lose 10 pounds safely and slowly. I don't need to gamble putting on 10 pounds on what I'm sure is a scam. How come we can't contact anyone there or refund the diet?
Just think before you buy people because I sure feel like an idiot.
Good luck to everyone!

Sorry I had to edit because I originally posted a sample menu from the diet and then thought I better remove that because it might be a copyright problem. I'd love to post a sample menu so you can see for yourselves there is nothing about this diet that makes it worth 40 dollars.
Take your 40 dollars and buy some workout DVDs you'll enjoy like Winsor pilates and buy a diet that helps you make life long changes like the book titled YOU ON A DIET.
Why didn't I just buy that book ..I don't know? I of course wanted a quick fix and the only thing I lost was 40 dollars Crying or Very sad

The endorsements of this diet sound utterly false, in fact laughable. If any of these people kept the weight off for more than a year or so after I'd be amazed. It is a very unhealthy diet being low carb and high fat similar to the Atkins diet. A healthy and permanent weight loss is 1-2lbs per week. e.g. 20lbs over 3 months. There ia no substitute for a well balanced reduced calorie diet and regular exercise of 30-60 minutes 5 days a week to lose weight and keep it off.
Our body chemistry is optimized when we eat a balanced diet of a variety of foods. The Idiot Proof diet is dangerous and a person using it regularly could seriously damage their health.
