Grape Fruit Diet

The fad to lose weight began some 30-40 years ago. One day, someone in California woke up and thought the nation was getting fat and developed a diet fad. Since that time, thousands of weight loss diets have come and gone. The most common reason why diets have become popular is that the available drugs for weight loss are not safe.

One of the longest surviving diets from the 1970s is the grape fruit diet. The diet has been so long in existence that no one really claims to be the inventor anymore. The effectiveness of the diet is typically spread by word of mouth. The premise of the grape fruit diet is that there is something in this fruit that can help you burn fat and cause weight loss.

In cyberspace, the advocates of this diet claim that one can lose a lot of weight in just a few days by eating grape fruit. Some claim that you can lose 10 pounds in weight in just 12 days. For those who want to lose more weight, there is a waiting period of 2 days before you can restart the cycle again. The role of exercise in the grape fruit diet is a puzzle. Some say exercise, others say do not exercise. Either way you lose weight. Not bad!

The grapefruit diet plan goes as follows:

Breakfast: eggs, bacon, black coffee, grapefruit juice, or half a grapefruit

Lunch: Salad, unlimited lean meat and more grapefruit juice or half a grapefruit

Dinner is more greens, unlimited meat or fish and grapefruit
