Don't do the bernstein diet.  I did it, it is about 600 calories a day.  In short, it is a starvation diet.  I lost 80 pounds on it, then gained it all back.  I have now lost it again, finally, but not on Bernstein.  First of all, most of the things you have learned about dieting over the years were either bad for your body, or just bad advice. For example, the Atkins diet craze was one of the worst diets that ever came along. By not eating carbs, you are not providing your body with the fuel it needs to function. So guess what happens? It doesn’t function properly!  Strip That Fat will open your eyes to what a diet should be and what it shouldn't be. A diet should be a lifestyle, but a diet SHOULD NOT be something that you dread. It should be easy enough to incorporate into your day-to-day and become second nature. This is the only diet I have ever seen that will teach you how your body works and how to manipulate what you eat and how you exercise for MAXIMUM weight loss results. Most diets you will come across will have side effects like feeling sick, unhealthy, starved, or just ridiculous (like eating cookies for dinner!!!). Strip That Fat will make you feel none of these. Rather it will make you feel “healthy”…that is the goal isn’t it? Strip That Fat includes a full guide to dieting and shows you how to burn more calories while doing less. If you burn more calories, guess what? You lose more weight. It doesn't restrict how much you eat either, which is the part that is usually the most frustrating for dieters.
