Why Cookie Dieting Will Become Mainstream One Day
I predict cookie dieting will become mainstream one day; as common a household diet term as atkins, weight watchers, or low fat. It’s inevitable for many reasons but mostly because of how effective it is. After you get over the initial shock of it being a “cookie”, (it’s not your Chip’s Ahoy type of cookie) and look at what it really is, you can appreciate its’ benefits.

Is Fast Weight Loss Really Bad?
I just don’t understand where all this negativity is coming from.

Why Diets Alone Fail
For years we have heard, “Eat less, exercise more, and you will lose weight”. Sounds simple, right? If it worked… why are we still so overweight? According to an October report from the World Health Organization (WHO), excess weight has reached epidemic proportions globally, with more than 1 billion adults being either overweight or obese. More people worldwide now die from being overweight and obese than from being underweight. And it doesn’t look like the experts will be coming up with a solution any time soon.

A recent report I read in MedlinePlus states U.S. Obesity Epidemic Continues to Spread. It reveals that obesity rates climbed over the past year in 16 states, and not a single state reported a decline.

For years we have heard, “Eat less, exercise more, and you will lose weight”. Sounds simple, right? If it worked… why are we still so overweight? A new report outlining how obesity threatens America's future, reveals that obesity rates climbed over the past year in 16 states, and not a single state reported a decline in the proportion of excessively overweight residents. The report, released in July, also found that more than 30 percent of the people in 12 states are obese. Four years ago, only one state could make that claim.

The Benefits Of A Cookie Diet
For those of you unfamiliar with this diet, here are the basics: You eat around 6 specially designed cookies during the course of the day followed by a balanced, yet low-calorie dinner. The cookies contribute roughly 400 to 500 calories and the dinner around the same. The cookies are basically a high protein/ high fiber/ whole grain food that are engineered to eliminate hunger and cravings. They are essentially a number of “mini-meals” eaten throughout the day.

There is No Such Thing As Cheating
You shouldn't get down on yourself about the way you eat. Too many of us obsess over it. How much? When? What? What about that party? How many fat grams, calories, carbs, etc. We need to stop this insanity and concentrate on one thing… There is no right way, there is no wrong way, you simply eat.
