LOSE UP TO 25 POUNDS IN 8 WEEKS AND KEEP IT OFF!

The human body evolved to resist starvation by holding on to fat. No wonder it's so difficult to lose weight! Now a revolutionary lifestyle plan finally cracks the code for efficient fat loss. Developed by leading nutrition specialist Wendy Chant, the plan is scientifically designed to help you "outsmart" your body's natural cycles for storing and burning calories.

Crack the Fat Loss Code teaches you how to boost your metabolism through "macro-patterning"--a simple routine of alternating carb-up, carb-down, and baseline days. There are even built-in cheat days, so you can enjoy the foods you love. Once you get your eating habits on schedule, you'll find that you can lose weight . . . for good.

In just eight short weeks, you'll be able to:

REPROGRAM YOUR BODY--to burn the fat and keep it off.FEEL HEALTHY, NOT HUNGRY--with limitless food options.CONQUER THAT DIET PLATEAU--once and for all.

"Crack the Fat-Loss Code brings you the most sensible solution to permanent weight management I have seen."
--Frederick C. Hatfield, Ph.D., bestselling author of Bodybuilding: A Scientific Approach, Hardcore Bodybuilding, and Ultimate Sports Nutrition

Title: Logical, flexible and the results are remarkable
Review: UPDATE (7/2008)! Still at it, folks, and still dropping. A little slower now and after a round of nasty, nasty steroids with the associated water weight gain. I STILL love the flexibility (and wine) on this plan. Especially with my hectic and varied work schedule, travel, client lunches, entertaining and gosh knows what else.THIS PLAN IS NOT LOW CARB nor HIGH PROTIEN. It's BALANCED eating. You do have a lot of choices. Be creative, folks. Wendy is not a dictator here to run your life. Learn to use the plan to make decisions. Take responsibility for yourself - THIS IS KEY to any program. She's providing the map for your journey. Rock on and enjoy the rest of the trip. (BTW - I am down about 40 in 5 months. 14 more months until the wedding!)Original post: (2/2008) If you're reading this, you might be like me... a diet pro. I've tried them all. Classes, mail order, As Seen on TV, in a bottle, pill or shot. I've tried everything but surgery. Won't go there.My upcoming wedding and a not so great physical at 41 years old finally prompted me to take the diet attempts I had been playing with seriously. My cholesterol and blood pressure were creeping up. Hello, diabetes! I can see you hiding around the corner. Getting scared? I was.Wendy Chant has put together a program that satisfies my two biggest "lifestyle" issues. It must MAKE SENSE and it must FIT INTO my crazy schedule. This program does both remarkably well. I eat real food when and where I want. Even 7-11 can supply me my afternoon snack if I am in a bind! I admit, I have to plan a tad more in the morning but that was what I was looking for: a program for life. New habits, new knowledge, new results. I understand how my body relates to food for the first time. I can feel how a bad choice makes me feel sluggish. And, I can revel in the newfound energy I have!While the program had a few "day plans" to learn, I keep a small 3X4" blank notebook in my purse with my plan and results. (Guys, it would fit in your pocket!) It's all I need to record and remind me of my plan. At the end of the day, I don't feel deprived. There are PLENTY of carbs on this diet. And I'll not spoil the two-times-a-week surprise... OK, I will. Two nights a week after 3 PM, you can eat what you'd like. Anything. Cake, pizza, beer, wine, spaghetti and meatballs. (Just not all at the same sitting! 🙂 I rarely crave anything for too long. I just schedule that pepperoni pizza night and a movie with popcorn for a Saturday night. Or, the craving just melts away. In my first run through of the eight week program, I am on track to lose about 22 pounds. Not bad for a 41 year old, rather sedentary woman! (I haven't even added the exercise in yet. Looking forward to those results.)So, if you're not interested in "Crack the Fat Loss Code", the last book that you'll ever need for heath and knowledge about how your body uses and NEEDS food, call me. I'll ship you the stacks of books I no longer need!

Title: What Do You Have to Lose? 😉
Review: This is our third week in working this program. Having read all the other reviews, I will have to agree with the few who said the book was a little hard to navigate when you get to the meal planning section. However, with a little detective work on your part, you can figure it out and move forward with this program. The question is--How badly do you want to lose weight?As an over 40-Year-Old woman and now fighting hormones, I have been struggling to lose weight for over 20 years. I was at the end of my rope. I stumbled across an article in "First" Magazine and remembered the name of the book to order from the library. When I received it, I read the first couple chapters on how your body works and why I wasn't losing weight. I figured out I was eating over 100 carbs per day! I was definitely a carb addict and fighting hormones. I immediately bought the book from Amazon so I could make notes if necessary.Here's how I suggest you make the book work for you. Read the beginning of the book so you understand how your body processes the foods you eat. This is scientific--but Wendy Chant makes it very simple, fun, and interesting. Then do this:1) Copy the menu plans for the 7-day carb deplete cycle and get started! You will most likely lose weight this week.2) Towards the end of that week, bone up on what you will need for the second week. You don't have to stay under 20 carbs per day, and will be adding carbs back in, gradually. Copy menu plans for the second week and make sure you have food (normal, grocery store food!)for that week. You can tweak it if you like. You will have a cheat day at the end of this week!3) Copy the meal plan charts for the macro-patterning cycle--weeks2-4 and post on your refrigerator along with the meal plans for that week. Just double check to see if that day is supposed to be a B,C, or D. She has several different samples of menu plans in the middle and at the end of the book.4) Then read up on what you will need to do for weeks 5-8 when you are close to finishing the 4th week.This way, you will not get confused and feel like you have to finish the entire book before you even get started. Just get started! And when you see the results, as I have, you will get excited and keep reading. You will not feel hungry because of the amount of protein you will be eating. You will be eating 4-6 small meals per day with regular food. I was able to persuade my husband, who is addicted to sweets, to follow this program with me, and he lost 12 lbs and I lost 6.4 the first week. The food is simple and the plans are easy to follow. We are sold!

Title: Wendy Chants "Crack the Fat-Loss Code"
Review: The information in the book makes total sense, however it's just not realistic for certain people to follow. I started the program and although the first 5 days delivered results I could not continue on the diet and had to quit. It gave me horrible headaches and I was nauseous all of the time. Just the thought of eating the few things that I could have made me sick. After 5 horrible days of it I had to concede defeat, but I did lose 8 pounds. If you have ever survived the Atkins Diet, then you can do this diet. The first week is like Atkins, but after that it seems that it will get better. My only complaint about the book is that Wendy does not give many meal idea's. Some people can figure all of that out for themselves, but other's need suggestions to be sure that what they are eating is on the plan. I am one of those people who really could use some additional meal plans and recipe's.

Review: Very informative. This approach to a healthy weight makes sense and is easy to follow. It is an eating plan that does not exclude any of the healthy food groups.
