Diet, Exercise and Eat Often
To lose weight regular exercise, correct nutrition and frequent eating will be an important strategy. The book describes the dieter visualizing the proper sized portions that need to be eaten. With this method the dieter does not need to count calories, but to choose appropriate portion sizes.
The criticism mentioned in this book claims that low-carb diets do not work. The low calorie diet works for those dieters who are carbohydrate sensitive.
Nutrition and weight loss are two separate but related issues. Fast food should be the last alternative and not a daily routine.
The good thing about the 3 Hour Diet is that it is flexible in what you eat and you do not have any restrictions on the diet.
