I know what you are thinking but no, the BRAT Diet doesn’t refer to those famous Johnsonville Brats from Wisconsin.
The BRAT Diet is not something you would normally eat at a Packer game. BRAT stands for bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. It’s a bland, low fiber diet for next time you suffer from diarrhea, vomiting or an upset stomach. These are binding foods that can help ease you back into normal eating.

The 5 Factor Diet looks like another best seller with testimonials from a handful of celebs, including Jessica Simpson who lost 10 pounds in 10 just days! Hats off to author Harley Pasternak who clearly has made a killing in the weight loss industry.
I haven’t read the book- it probably does contain helpful information. I just don’t like the hype. 5factordiet.com Any program or weight loss book that claims a 10 pound weight loss in 10 days has no credibility.

Today I weighed 211, so I’ve lost 79 pounds. I’ve lost seven pounds since Saturday. Yeah, I’m still trying to lose. My original goal was 210, but I’m going to keep going, there’s no reason to stop. I’m going to see what happens at 200, see what happens there. I may keep going. I mean I love this diet. The food is delicious. And, by the way, you know what? There’s one way for me to tell you how I’m doing this because I can’t describe it. I told you, I cannot describe it. It’s too intricate, too detailed. I couldn’t do it. -rushlimbaugh.com
MY COMMENT: When any celebrity loses weight, it’s big news. How did they do it? Rush admits the secret to his success is Quick Weight Loss Centers.
I have to be suspect of any program or diet that uses the word “quick” and claims you can lose 3-7 pounds a week.

Though Kirstie says she still hasn’t gotten back on the exercise equipment, she has begun the weight loss journey. “For the last year and a half, I’ve been researching and developing my own weight loss line, and I’ve actually lost 20 pounds in the last five weeks doing that,” she says.
Kirstie says she can’t reveal anything just yet, but she’s convinced she’s cracked the weight loss code. “It’s not going to be on the market until probably between November and January 1, probably November,” -oprah.com
I just happened to catch part of Oprah’s interview with Kirstie Alley-what a piece of work. I can’t wait to see what she has dreamed up!

I know I am , and I’ve never even seen Biggest Loser. I am sure she must be a nice person, but I checked out her free weight loss plan by completing the required forms, and next thing I know they were asking for credit card information ($4 a week).
So what’s free??
