I’m tired of all non working diets I’ve gone through so far, so at first I wasn’t very enthusiastic about trying this one. Then, something about it changed the way I felt. I’ve read that the whole idea of this diet is to eat once every three hours, and that nutritionists believe that this way we can contribute to modifying our metabolism and the consummation of stocked fats.

The diet seems to be quite easy to follow. It involves meals and snacks every three hours to prevent the apparition of hunger and the loss of determination we initially feel. It makes sense to feel less affected by the diet itself since I wasn’t allowed to get hungry. I was worried about the fact that muscles could’ve been affected by the rapid effect it has on the fats retained by our body.

Also, the control imposed on the quantities eaten makes sure you will eat the normal number of calories each day, but the overall sensation will be that you have eaten more. You can’t eat anything every three hours, you must eat things that don’t go over 300 calories, and the fact that you feel like eating more thanks things a lot easier. It helped me a lot in following the diet each day and it improved my general mental state.

The three hour diet is very much like an alimentary program for small children and it relies on the fact that it provides just enough energy to burn the unwanted body fat. It also maintains a normal meals’ balance. After going through this, I have managed to put an accent on a few positive and negative aspects that were much emphasized in my case.

Pluses

1.The fact that there are NO restrictions is just like you aren’t even taking a diet. At no point did I feel hungry or bad in any way.

2.This diet can be taken by anyone. It doesn’t really matter if you have cardiovascular problems or diabetes. When it thought about it, I didn’t manage to make this diet stick to any category, because it is not specific at all.

3.You will eat normally. And no one is lying to you telling you that unrealistic goals can be reached.

Minuses

1. It is very easy to loose calories count. I know I did, on many occasions. If you eat more with just 10 calories at lunch, then add 14 at soup time and 4 during dinner…the result is obvious. I mean, it’s clear you will gain weight instead of losing weight.

2. Sometime it is impossible to eat every three hours. And some people can’t do it. Just image people working in banks or department stores taking 10 minutes brakes to eat every three hours. Can you imagine the lengths of lines filled with people waiting for workers to come back?
