The Cookie Diet Crumbles
By Omar Maskori | July 27, 2007
What’s that you say? I can lose a ton of weight by eating cookies all day long?
Where can I sign up!?
This is the idea behind the Cookie Diet: eat cookies all day long and lose weight quickly.
Sounds too good to be true? Well let’s find out…
Here’s the plan: eat six cookies during the day whenever you are hungry and then a sensible dinner made up of a lean protein and a cup of vegetables.
Sounds good so far.
Except… these diet cookies taste like shoes… and really dry shoes at that.
So doesn’t that get rid of what attracted you to this diet in the first place? I mean if the cookies don’t even taste good then what the heck is the point?
Well I suppose if you can lose weight quickly that would be the real point.
So will this not-so-tasty weight loss plan deliver on the promise of fast fat loss?
Well yes… and no…
You see, the reason this diet causes fast weight loss has nothing to do with the expensive diet cookies you have to buy (around $10 a day). It has to do with the fact that your total daily calories will be about… 800 calories.
Yikes that’s low.
In fact, that’s too low.
You might be thinking, “Well if that’s what it takes to lose weight who cares if you think it’s too low?”
Well here’s why: when you lower your calories this low, you will slow your metabolism to a crawl.
Then when you get off the diet (which will be soon) and start eating a more normal amount of calories BAM you just gained all your weight back and…
You will now be gaining fat quicker than ever before.
Why?
Because you are the proud new owner of a shiny new sluggish metabolism!
Congratulations you get to be fat for life!
It’s the same story for all crash diets…
- Lose weight quickly through starvation
- Kill your metabolism
- Get off the diet
- Gain back all the weight
- Gain even more weight because of your slower metabolism
So as you can see, crash diets like this one will leave you fatter in the long run.
The Dr. Siegel Cookie Diet, the Hollywood Cookie Diet, and the Smart for Life Cookie Diet are all based on the same gimmick: tricking people to think they can achieve their dream body by eating cookies.
It’s just a ploy to drain your bank account folks.
This fad diet will cost you up to $400 a month… and you’ll end up fatter.
Now that’s a raw deal.
To lose weight you have to eat less calories than you burn up (but don’t starve yourself). And stay away from silly crash diets!
