Does the Three Hour Diet Work?
401008
It is based on the premise that you never let your stomach get empty...so your body doesn't shut down thinking it is being starved to death.  Yes, it can work if you are following a healthy regime.  The idea isn't a meal every 3  hours, it is breakfast, a snack, lunch, a snack, dinner, a snack.\n\nJenny Craig and Nutrisystem also do a three hour schedule but just don't call it that.  \n\nIf you send me your email address, I will gladly give you a diet based on Jenny Craig and Nutrisystem. You can do it yourself at home. You won't need to measure anything or count calories. It is all already proportioned. It involves all food groups and is based on 1250 calories. Very healthy.  I have shared it with many askers on yahoo answers.

Yes that will help I would also try to add some other life style changes as well. \n\nAvoid all sodas, (did u know that most sodas have 10 teaspoons of sugar?)\n\nalso try not to eat past 7PM and if you do, just snack on something very light on carbs (perhaps fruits etc).

I lost 53lbs in less than three months by drinking nothing else but bottled water, I ate three servings of dairy (yogurt, cheese, milk, etc..) I never ate after 8PM no matter what and instead of making my reg. size dinner plate in the evening I started making me a saucer of the same dinner I prepared for everyone else.. It really did work!! Good Luck.. I did also walk a half mile 3 days per week also.. keep me informed.. Hope it works for you the way it did for me!!!

I have tried it.  It works but it is only because you have to be strict with yourself and eat a super low fat diet and excercise as soon as you stop if you don't have the willpower to continue the weight will go back on.

This works great for me..\nTry do any kind of vigorous exercise 3x a day for 15 minutes. I power walked, went up and down my basement stairs, raked leaves, jump rope, anything to get my heart beating.\nIt takes commitment but it works. It has something to do with keeping your metabolism working. \nAlso I kept away from white sugar products. For me white sugar gave my body an energy burst that doesn’t last and drained me after my sugar high was over. It was very hard for me to get over the sugar withdraw the first 3 days . It took about a week to get my body trained. \nI went from size 14 to size 10 in about 5 months. STAY AWAY from McDonalds, Chips and Crackers.. " these gave me sugar cravings HUGE" I have fallen off the diet wagon and feel low energy but now you have motivated me to get in the swing again. Thanks

I am on the SOuth Beach Diet and it does work. I have been on it for a month and I have lost 20 lbs so far. I was also on it about a year and a half ago and lost 50 lbs. but I totally binged and loaded up on carbs when I was at  the weight I wanted and gainded it all back. So, if you do this diet, you have to realize that it is changing the way you eat and you need to stick with it for it to work. It's healthy for you and a smart way to eat!

Only if you stick to a calorie controlled diet, and do exercise, like every other slimming aid, it does'nt work magic. Yes I did use it for \nabout 3 months but I only lost a few pounds.

This is what worked for me. My Dr. recommened The Medifast Diet. It is Soy Protein. It teaches you to eat 5-6 small meals a day every 2-3 hours to speed up your metabolism. You will lose weight quickly with very little exercise. I have lost 30 lbs. so far. If you want the number to Medifast just e-mail me at lovejae247@yahoo.com

YES IT WORKS!\n\nSince every diet needs to be tailored to your needs, this plan works.\n\nmy friends parents sell it, and I have never heard of a dissatisfied customer. try it

ABSOLUTELY! I swear by it. I had tried every diet and fitness plan under the sun with little to no result. Then I tried the Abs diet (which i saw in Men's health magazine of all places... I'm a female) and i've gotten spectacular results. It doesn't feel like a diet at all. I eat more (6 times a day) and exercise less than I have with other plans and will remain with it for life. Don't believe that six meals a day aren't doable either. I work full time, go to school, am 45 years old and a single mom and I manage it just fine. You can too. Keep in mind that the 6 meals are specific and healthy foods. Not eating whatever you like 6 times a day.

There is only one way that really works.  Eat anything you want but eat half the amount you are now eating and take a multivitamin EVERY day.  It really does work.  I lost 35 pounds  by eating only lunch  but I ate whatever I wanted.  Now I am keeping it off.  Good luck honey.  (you don't have to do only one meal like I did. Really, it's better to eat three smallllll ones.)

It has proven time and time again that any of these slimming "magic bullets" MAY seem to work but only temporarily or NOT AT ALL.\n\nThere is no slimming pill that really works. The sure way is a good diet and exercise  and TIME.

The best diet in the world and the only one recommended by every healthcare professional is the 'eat well and exercise' diet.\n\nI can't believe you don't have time to exercise, if that were the case you'd be so busy that the pounds would be dropping off you and you wouldn't have time to eat.  After the Asian Tsunami I was working an average of 19 and a half hours a day, 7 days a week and I never had time to exercise but I lost 16 pounds and that's with the local cafe delivering breakfast every day, the shop bringing round snacks, the Chinese arriving daily at 5PM and the Indian at 11PM.\n\nEven if you're really busy you can still exercise - walk a little faster and further, swing your legs when sitting down, jog instead of walking, run upstairs instead of walking etc etc.  They might only be small things but added together they can make a big difference.\n\nIf you're working 100 hours a week then by working 10% faster you can save 10 hours a week - twice as much time as the minimum recommended for exercising.
