Dieters Slim May Be A Little Misleading

Though it is what they want to do Slimming should not be so hard yet there are literally thousands if not millions that could do with shedding a few pounds of unwanted fat. This is personal to me as I have gained and lost many pounds over the years with the help of diets, tonics, programs and even the dreaded exercises.

What does a dieter need to slim?

The most important thing I found I needed to lose weight was a mental picture of what I wanted to look like. This I constantly kept in my mind all the time. It was never exact just really a thought I would think like; " I am trim or I am light or even I look great and thin". Then I had to choose a diet. The truth is there are many many diets that would help anyone slim out there. We all know just by being slimmer it has a great anti aging effect on us. You just need to investigate them to see if they fit into your life and plans and will actually work for you specifically.

The Best Life Diet by Bob Greene - A Review

By Matt Hellstrom

I'd like to offer you a glimpse inside the Bob Greene Best Life diet plan. It seems to me that this might be helpful for you to make a decision to get involved, since that costs money at the very least. Not to mention time and energy. Here are the basics.

Cost. Right around $50 will cover the basic costs including the book with recipes, the journal, and a stay on the program book (also available on CDs). The cost of your food will decrease because fresh food is normally cheaper than processed food. You also have an option of joining Bob Greene diet program for a weekly fee that gives you access to experts and other dieters.

Diet Duration. This of course depends on you. The program is set up for Phase 1 and 2 to go a minimum of 4 weeks each. Phase 2 repeats until you reach your goal. Phase 3 is your new lifestyle.

Fitness. Major role in the diet. You start by taking a test to determine your current level of activity and then slowly and (importantly) safely increase it to reach your ideal metabolism. This is not limited to personal trainer type of exercise but incorporates lifestyle types of activities outside of the gym.

Time. To eat nutritious meals will involve more than opening a box so for those of you who like to cook this will be great. Those who don't, a bit more time (and positive attitude!) is involved. And to keep the weight off daily fitness is vital.

Dining Out. Of course! Bob Greene's diet books help you learn how to make smart decisions at restaurants. He even offers a book that gives you specific suggestions off the menu of several places.

Alcoholic Beverages. First phase not an option. Other two phases is okay within reason.

Forever Dieting? The beauty of Bob Greene's diet plan is that he understands that it is not being lazy that got us where we are. But there a multitude of influences in this world that shape and mold us to become what we are. Some are, good some aren't. In looking at these areas honestly, we can start making a change that will last and is not just a bandaid.

So is the Bob Greene Best Life Diet for you? Only you can determine that. Why? Because only if you believe and commit to it, no matter how good the Best Life diet is, will you be successful.
