Dr. Ian K. Smith's Extreme Fat Smash Diet

Like most Americans I'm constantly searching for some product to help me lose weight. I like to look for different diets and try them out. So when I saw the Fat Smash diet by Celebrity Fit Club's Dr. Ian K. Smith I was immediately intrigued. But as I perused the bookstore I discovered that I could do even better than the Fat Smash Diet. Dr. Ian K. Smith had also written The EXTREME Fat Smash Diet. This was great! I could lose the weight in half the time. I immediately purchased his book and began following his diet.

I guess I should start off by telling you a little bit about the diet. Each week on his diet is called a cycle and there are 3 cycles to rotate through. According to Dr. Smith you can lose up to 4 pounds each week, for a total of 12 pounds after one rotation. But if you have more than this to lose, Dr. Smith says you can just begin at the first cycle again and do another rotation until you have reached your weight goal.

Simple enough. But to make the Extreme Fat Smash Diet a little more personal, Dr. Smith also assigns diet types, alpha, beta or gamma. The diet types are based on your past dieting experiences and later will determine the amount of food you can eat and how much exercise you must do on the diet. To top it all off, Dr. Smith also includes recipes in the back of the book and advice for exercising.

Let me just say this, Dr. Ian K. Smith obviously does not joke around. This diet is the definition of the word extreme. Each day of the diet comes with an assigned menu. And there has to be less than 800 calories for each day of the first week. The foods assigned are healthy, with lots of fiber and protein. This alone wouldn't be awful, but the exercise routine is extreme as well. On this program you start off with 55 minutes of exercise. Maybe more depending on your diet type. By the second day you could be doing 45 minutes of cardio in the morning and 40 minutes in the evening if you have right dieting type. All with just a few small servings of fruits, vegetables, beans and the occasional egg white each day.
