Book Reviews of Extreme Fat Smash Diet

Book Review: THE SKINNY ON SMASH
Summary: 5 Stars

The Extreme Fat Smash Diet is an accelerated version of the 90-day program presented in the original Fat Smash Diet and promises a weight loss of up to 12 pounds in 3 weeks. The diet consists of 4 small portion-controlled meals and 2 snacks per day. Recipes are included. The diet does not eliminate entire food groups, but there are plenty of restrictions. The plan is designed so that you do not need to go very long between its small meals and snacks, with the hope you will not feel you need to overeat during a given meal or snack.

To follow the book's program you need to fit yourself into one of three dieting profiles - alpha, beta or gamma - depending on whether you have been successful on diets in the past and therefore need a more or less aggressive diet and exercise program. Alpha's, for example, lose weight easily, beta's will lose if they follow a diet to the letter though not as much as alpha's, and gamma's struggle for modest results. The diet has 3 one-week cycles that together combine to one "rotation". The three cycles become less restrictive, (with cycle 3 being less restrictive than cycle 1). If you need to lose more weight after your first rotation (3 cycles together) then you go back and repeat cycle 1 or cycle 2 again.

The foods include fish, chicken, eggs, beans, vegetables, fruit, etc. You can also have two 100 calorie or less snacks. Here is a sample menu from Cycle 1:
Meal 1: 2 egg whites or 1/2 cup Egg Beaters or 1 egg; 1 piece fruit or 1/2 cup fresh fruit or tomato juice.
Meal 2: 1 cup sliced fresh fruit.
Meal 3: 1 small veggie-only salad with 3 tablespoons low/non-fat dressing.
Meal 4: 1/2 cup beans, lentils, or chickpeas; 2 servings vegetables (gamma's gets one veggie serving).

A sample exercise day includes 55 minutes cardio with, for example, 25 minutes fast walking/running on treadmill and 30 minutes stationary bike. (Beta's do 60 minutes and gamma's do 65 minutes.)

The book provides a journal page where you write down what you eat (a good idea so you can look back). Dr. Smith prescribes 40-60 minutes of cardio exercise five days a week and makes specific suggestions. There is a maintenance plan that is designed to be followed for the long-term.
