Alicia Silverstone, the iconic star of Clueless, has a new hit diet book … which brings a new interpretation to the word ‘diet’ — and emphasizes a lifestyle of healthy eating, and gradual weightloss broken down into easy to follow phases and plenty of recipes planned out for you in advance with full calorie counts. The Kind Diet is now flying off the shelves and one can’t help speculate – is this trend here to stay, and are Americans ready to adopt plant based diets (as opposed to carrot diets, maple syrup diets, and diet pills)

 Rodale Releases “The Kind Diet” following the success of South Beach Diet, Abs Diet, and Flat Belly Diet…

While it took Flat Belly Diet and Eat This, Not That over a year of advertising before they cracked into the top ten, Alicia Silverstone, today can call herself the current bestselling author in weight loss with the highly promoted and massive launch by Rodale *publisher’s of South Beach, Abs Diet and Flat Belly…Which have sold millions of copies and spun off cookbooks, even Kraft food products, and a website online community.)

Suzanne Somers Weight Loss

September 10, 2008

in More Scoop!

Believe it or not, I’m on Suzanne Somers latest diet. She’s written dozens of diet books that specialize in losing weight through a hormonal system, but she offers different ways to lose weight through cutting carbs, exercise and choosing the right foods.

Suzanne Somer’s Website

It turns out my doctor in New york is also the consultant for her books. The doctor was recommended by a friend who had  found her contact information in a recent best selling Suzanne Somers Diet book. Her techniques are invaluable and applicable to both men and women. Here is an interview she did on The Today Show. and also here’s a cover of her latest book.

The diet I’m on that was recommended by her doctor is tough handle but doable. She emphasized cutting out all Sugar, just like Britney Spears No Sugar Diet. And yes, that means fruits.  The goal is to wean the body off sugar and regulate insulin, the fat producing hormone and also triggers stress and fatigue. It works because lately I’ve had a lot more energy and lost like 5 pounds every two weeks. She also emphases low calorie, and suggested a protein rich shake that’s low in calorie but rich in all the nutrients and neccessary vitamins. The diet also emphasizes healthy cuts of lean protein, and eating good fats (olive oil, almonds and other nuts) in moderate amounts rather than bad fats which you would find in a fatty cut of meat like prime rib. She does allow some fruits, but its limited to certain ones that are low in sugar, and nutrient packed like blueberries.

I’m definitely going to talk more about dieting and healthy weight loss. it’s something I’m interested in that I’ve been researching for a long time. Small portions, and cutting back gradually is a lot healthier than miracle diets. Suzanne Somers is less miracle diet and more healthy and common sense and realistic. It may possible to lose weight quickly, but the goal is maintaining the weight loss. What’s so good about losing weight, only to gain it back and maybe more.
