Every Other Day Diet – I Can Eat What I Want When I Want! – a Review

By dawn on Saturday, September 11th, 2010 | 5 Comments

I was looking at all the Every Other Day Diet has to offer and it reminded me of something that happened the other day with my 9-year-old grandson.

He rides the bus home from school every day, but for some reason the bus driver has never liked him. It doesn’t seem to matter what he does, whether good or bad, she always blames him. He’s actually a good kid, better than most, especially these days, because his parents have always disciplined him when he needed it – along with showing him love.

Well, this particular day, I guess he was fed up with the way the bus driver treated him, so when she told him to stop doing something, he said, “It’s a free country!”

You can imagine, THAT certainly didn’t earn him any brownie points in the bus driver’s book. In fact, he got written up because of it. And then when he got home and told his parents about it, he was in trouble with them, too.

His dad told him, “yes, it’s a free country, but that doesn’t mean you are free to do whatever you want whenever you want. There are rules you have to follow in some situations. AND you HAVE to show respect to those in authority even when you don’t feel like it.” And then he grounded him for a period of time – discipline.

So what does all this have to do with the Every Other Day Diet, you may ask? When I listened to Fitness author Jon Benson share an ancient remedy for getting rid of body fat, I realized there is a correlation between what my grandson experienced and what we all tend to do that causes us not to lose weight.

You can check it out here

You’ve probably heard that the Every Other Day Diet allows you to eat a lot of your favorite foods, like pizza, burgers, and other things we consider “junk food”. So you think, “Why do I need to get this diet? It’s a free country! I can eat whatever I want whenever I want.”

Well, that kind of thinking is what got you into trouble – putting on the fat – in the first place. Just like in other parts of life, there are “rules” that you need to follow in order to have the desired fat-loss results that you want.

Just like my son-in-law gave my grandson the discipline he needed to do the right thing next time, the Every Other Day Diet gives you the blueprint (rules) and the discipline to have you eating the right foods at the right time. Doing this will make your metabolism break out of the pattern it is in and keep it guessing, so that it will be tricked into letting go of the fat, rather than hanging onto it.

5 Surprising Things That Make You Leaner

By dawn on Saturday, September 11th, 2010 | 2 Comments

[ Editor's Note: Fitness author Jon Benson shared this letter with me and gave me permission to share it with you. ]

Want to be leaner?

Good deal… here’s 5 tips that will help you along…

TIP 1
Ditch The Starch

Starches, such as rice, potatoes, some veggies, oats, etc. are often considered “health foods.”

While they can be healthy, they can also pack on stomach bodyfat like crazy if you overdo them.

As you may know, my “Every Other Day Diet” System (EODD) actually encourages you to eat starches and even sweets several days a week to get rid of excess weight:

http://www.everyotherdaydiet.com/go/greatimage <– click.

( Some of you may see a survey here on how best to help with your bodyweight goals. )

Well… how does THAT work?

Simple: Timing is everything.

And we take a “weekly” approach to foods rather than a daily approach. This keeps your metabolism guessing. If your body cannot figure out what you’re up to, fatburning is that much more powerful. And you can get by with eating starches… at least at specific times on specific days.

But if you’re not going to do EODD, then you’ll have to wing it. And the best way to wing it is to simply cut starches out entirely for 4-8 weeks. Then slowly add them back a few days per week.

This is no where near as effective (or as fun) as the EODD method, but it will get you pointed in the right direction.

TIP 2
Can The Sodas

This one is really hard for me. I’ve been hooked on diet-soda on and off for years. When I go to get into top shape (like I am now) I have to get rid of the diet-sodas… yes, DIET-sodas. Need I say “real” sodas too? They are loaded with sugar.

Why diet-sodas? A recent study revealed that people who drank diet-sodas actually increased bodyfat when compared to those who drank sugar-sodas. What in the world ??

Yep. Your body cannot be fooled by aspartame and chemicals. Sorry, but that’s the truth.

Here’s a personal story: When I cut out the diet-sodas my bodyfat drops like a rock in a pond of clear water.

And that’s what you need to be drinking: A quart of pure water per 50 lbs of bodyweight a day.

I mix it with lemon and a bit of Stevia (an herbal sweetener) and make lemonade. It’s wonderful!

TIP 3
Stay Hungry

Arnold’s first movie was “Stay Hungry” (well, after “Pumping Iron” that is). You cannot rest on your butt and stay hungry. You cannot think you’ve “arrived” and stay hungry.

It takes a special person to be hungry… and an even greater one to stay that way.

I want you to stay hungry in two ways: In how you workout and literally… stay a bit hungry before you go to bed. Not “starving”… just a bit hungry.

For your workouts, I have a great solution. If you pick up EODD you’ll get a limited shot at “7 Minute Body”… my combination of “7 Minute Muscle” and “The 7 Minute In-Home Workout” in one book… and for more than half off… but that’s a very limited deal. Gotta have EODD… you’ll need them both…

http://www.everyotherdaydiet.com/go/greatimage <– click.

( Some of you may see a survey here on how best to help with your bodyweight goals. )

You see, progression — “forced” progression — is the best way to stay hungry. 7 Minute Body forces you to progress without thinking about it. Progression is built into the System.

As far as staying hungry at night? Check with your doctor and if he/she okays it take 500mg of potassium and 1000mg of magnesium/calcium a few hours prior to bed. This helps with the hunger pangs. Also, keep hard-boiled eggs in the fridge. If you get really hungry, eat one with half the yolk (toss the other half.) It keeps me full for an hour at least.

TIP 4
Cardio Clarity

Hours and hours of cardio a day is not the answer. However, you can do “light” cardio (i.e. brisk walking, or riding the bike at 60% of your max) just to burn off calories. That’s okay… and personally I don’t find it that boring if I’m watching a TV show. It does not interfere with my main fatloss exercise (weight training… YES!) and it burns off about 400 calories an hour.

What does work is early morning fasting cardio… but you only need 9-15 minutes. I explain the GXP Protocol (Modified) in the 7 Minute Body book, available only if you pick up EODD, and you can get it at more than half off:

( Some of you may see a survey here on how best to help with your bodyweight goals. )

TIP 5
Get Raw At Night

Raw veggies with your last meal and as a snack will really help your fatburning along. I started with red peppers because they’re sweet. Now I eat virtually every veggie raw at night without thinking about it. Give this a shot. The fatloss is well worth it.

—-> Note From Dawn: Jon is still giving away “Radical Fatloss Blueprint” along with EODD for a few more days. And he is giving a lucky few the chance to pick up the Supplement-Kit that comes with Radical Fatloss for almost 100 bucks off… the video and details are here:

Emotional Eater – Is This You?

By dawn on Friday, September 10th, 2010 | No Comments

Are you an emotional eater?

Emotions can be deadly.

At least when it comes to eating.

And the VAST majority of us are “emotional eaters.” And that leads to excess bodyfat.

We eat when we are stressed-out.

We eat when we are overly happy.

We eat when we are depressed.

And when you eat like this you can kiss your fatloss goodbye.

There’s a 4-minute video that I want you to watch today.

It is touching, funny, and very powerful all at the same time.

And it will help you come to terms with emotional eating.

P.S. This is a very unique video. I know you will love it.

And I KNOW you will benefit from it.

Burn More Bodyfat With Spices

By dawn on Thursday, August 26th, 2010 | No Comments

[ Editor's Note: Fitness author Jon Benson shared this letter with me and gave me permission to share it with you. ]

It’s the spice of life.

Food that is. Or opinions. I guess there is a lot of things that are officially “the spice of life.”

I think spices are the spice of life.

I have a new-found love of spices since hanging around a killer healthy-food chef for the past week.

Wow oh wow… I had no idea.

And hey — I’m helping her put her recipes into to a book that will be out soon.

I’ll send you all a video of this woman doing her thing too in a week or so… prepare to be blown away.

Back to spices:

Not only can spices save an otherwise boring healthy meal…. turns to find out spices can help you burn more bodyfat.

The January 2006 issue of The Journal of Physiology and Behavior cited numerous studies on several spices that increased thermogenesis in the body.

Thermogenesis is simply heat — and since a calorie is a unit of heat, guess what?

More thermogenesis = more calories burned

Less bodyfat.

Pretty cool stuff this thermogenesis.

In fact thermogenesis is the foundation of my upcoming handbook “The Radical Fatloss Blueprint.” Out in late February.

I’m giving this book away for free for 21 days to anyone who owns a copy of “The Every Other Day Diet.”

The book comes out in late February… and it is… well, radical.

Up to 21 pounds in 21 days.

But you can only do it for 21 days. Fair deal, right?

If you want the book for free, make sure you have “Every Other Day Diet” so I can send it to you the last week of February.

Get EODD here –

http://www.everyotherdaydiet.com/go/greatimage <— more thermogenesis, less bodyfat

For now, here’s the spices that work the best to help you burn bodyfat:

1. Capsaicin, the compound gives red chili pepper its heat, increased energy via heat expenditure by up to 23% after ingesting it at breakfast.

2. Black Pepper increases body heat (thermogenesis) by bonding to TRPV1 receptors in the brain.

3. Turmeric has both anti-cancer and pro-thermogenic support. Best of two worlds if you ask me.

Combine these three spices: Red chili pepper, black pepper and turmeric, and use them liberally (as you can handle them) on your lunch and dinner meals.

Just be careful not to overdo the spices, otherwise you’ll end up with more heartburn than fatburn.

I’ll be including FAR more powerful ways to burn bodyfat radically in “The Radical Fatloss Blueprint” — and you can get your copy free the last week of February if you own Every Other Day Diet.

The Every Other Day Diet Review

By dawn on Sunday, August 22nd, 2010 | 31 Comments

The Every Other Day Diet looks like the perfect diet for those of us who want to “cheat” on our diet. By that I mean we want to eat foods that are normally forbidden on a “sensible” weight loss diet.

The Every Other Day Diet actually allows you to eat your favorite foods and still lose weight. In fact, they encourage you to eat what you like. But it has to be according to the plan they set out for you. You can’t just eat what you like all the time, because that’s what has gotten you into the shape you’re in.

The idea is to vary the calories you consume and the food sources every day. So part of the time you are eating what we consider to be “healthy” and part of the time you can actually eat “junk food” and use it to change your metabolism.

They call this the “cheat to eat” diet.

Some of the benefits of the Every Other Day Diet are:

This is a program that people will actually follow! A program you can stay on forever because you are not depriving yourself of foods you enjoy.
There’s NO counting calories!!
This program teaches you how and when to eat your favorite foods.
It shows you how to eat and the supplements you need to take every day.
It gives you almost 40 pages of great tasting recipes.
It reprograms your body and your mind for success.

They even give you 5 different plans to choose from so if you don’t like one plan, you can try another.

The downside: My only concern about this diet is, just how healthy is it to allow all that junk food into our bodies? Granted, it is only on a planned schedule, but still, if it is taking the place of healthy foods, is it really good for us?

Having said that, I still would highly recommend this diet, because most of us “cheat” on our diets, anyway. But at least with the Every Other Day Diet, there is a method to the madness. AND we don’t have to feel guilty!! Now THAT’S a novel idea!!!

Why don’t you check out this diet? Sounds like a winner to me!
