3 hour diet

Postby Maralian » Wed Apr 29, 2009 2:37 pm

3 hr diet, what a joke, I borrowed the book from the library just by curiosity. It reads like an infomercial boring and unfounded, it criticizes all other diets in particular low carb and it considers SB a low carb diet, he’s got everything wrong!
The idea of eating every 3 hours is good, actually it is pretty much what we do in SB with the meals and snacks but in one example he suggests a pack of 100 cal oreos as a snack! That made me realize that SB is sound, good choices are the most important thing, it makes me feel much better to eat a fruit and some protein for snack than a bag of cookies (ex-cookie monster talking here).

There are a ton of diets that follow this same model. Cut back or eliminate empty carbs and eat more. SB is delivered in a friendly fashion, which makes it appealing to people. I know a guy who came up with a similar diet and markets it to fitness people. They eat it up because he's one of them....but they also blow SB off as being unsound. There seems to be a cottage industry based on taking something that works, injecting "facts" in it from google searches, then delivering it to the unwashed masses.
