Bob Green Diet
How this diet works: He is touted as Oprah's
trainer. Dieters eat three meals
and up to two snacks a day. It’s important to set a meal schedule where
you stop eating at least two hours before bedtime. Cardio workouts start at
50-75 minutes per week in phase 2 and build to 100-125 minutes in phase 3.
Strength training exercises don’t begin until phase 4 when abdominal
muscles are stronger and good eating habits are firmly in place. (That’s
because weight lifting can cause an increase in appetite.) Good Points
There’s in-depth coverage of many behavioral issues, particularly
emotional eating if this is a problem for you. Keeping a journal helps
pinpoint feelings attached to overeating. (They don't mention that
this is usually due to the body needing some nutrition, but you can
probably pinpoint that too) Bad
Points Exercise equipment (dumbbells and benches) might
require a health club fee Restaurants usually aren’t careful
about fat or portion sizes, so it’s best to avoid them. . Dieters
can e-mail Greene with questions, but answers are directed at dieters as a
group — not individuals.
Duration: Forever. This is all about making permanent changes in the
way you eat and exercise.
