The problem with most diets is that they’re viewed as “quick fixes.” Once the dieting period is completed, people feel satisfied by the weight they’ve lost and reward themselves with all their favorite foods and habits again. Several weeks later, these dieters are dismayed to find they have packed on all their old weight again, despite their new fitness program. Instead of looking for the next passing fad like the Atkins Diet or the South Beach Diet, people should be looking for a guide to healthier eating for life. The Abs Diet 6-Minute Meals for 6-Pack Abs is a NY Times bestseller that offers a practical approach to eating, including tips and recipes for a healthier life and slimmer mid-section.
Growing up, we were taught to eat three times a day — at breakfast, lunch and dinner. However, The Abs Diet 6-Minute Meals for 6-Pack Abs book states you should eat six times a day — breakfast at 8, a snack at 11, lunch at 1, a snack at 4, dinner at 6 and a snack at 9. You should never be hungry, the book’s author says. Instead, you should eat every few hours to keep your stomach satisfied and your metabolism rolling. You’ll be eating a lot of “power foods” full of nutrients, protein, healthy fats and fiber in your new diet, which will cut back on overeating.
Old diets tell you to swear off all desserts, but The Abs Diet 6-Minute Meals for 6-Pack Abs encourages you to have dessert each day! Since we naturally crave sweets, it’s best to fulfill these cravings if you can do so without blowing hundreds of calories in one sitting. At www.menshealth.com/absdiet, you can find a recipe for a delicious fruit smoothie that uses many “power foods” like raspberries, oatmeal, peanut butter, whey powder and milk. Using smoothies as snacks or replacement meals can be a satisfying way to keep on track.
Some people complain that the meals in The Abs Diet 6-Minute Meals for 6-Pack Abs are too simplistic. Many of the diets include smoothies, which may not be suitable for people who are spending their afternoons at the workplace. There are lots of variations on the same meal as well, which not everyone finds illuminating. People who already have another abs diet book may not want to read all the abs diet principals over again. Some reviewers at Amazon said the main course entree recipes are a bit lacking and that the book is more focused on soups, sandwiches and smoothies. At any rate, this book can be purchased in standard format, as a Kindle e-book or you can even purchase an online subscription at www.absdietonline.com.
