Going through diet after diet, sooner or later everybody ends up
thinking that there's nothing more to learn. Frankly, it doesn't take
long to get exhaustive hands on experience with just about all the
major dieting concepts and to learn in which way each of them is
supposed to influence the body. And once you're familiar with all the
pros and cons of dieting, it's only fair to think that nothing could
surprise you anymore. Well, this is where the Abs Diet comes in with a
rather strange take on the old concept of losing weight through
exercises. And, no, there are no magic pills to swallow.

The basic idea is much simpler than that. It goes something like this:
the body has to expend energy in order to keep the muscles and
internal organs alive and in shape. This means that every addition to
the muscle mass will force the body to spend more energy. Therefore,
instead of lowering the daily food intake in order to lose weight,
this diet focuses on increasing the "energy bill" above the normal
level. The extra muscle mass is supposed to absorb all the calories
that would otherwise be stored as fat and also force the body to burn
existing fat in order to keep up with the effort.

Every 1 pound of muscle added to the body costs the body 50 calories
per day on top of everything else. It's pretty easy to see that 10
pounds of muscle are going to keep busy 500 calories of your daily
intake every single day. This is enough to make you lose 1 pound per
week, which is not bad at all. It's interesting to notice that the
diet is based on achieving a snowball effect: the more you exercise,
the more muscle you put on; the more muscle you put on, the faster you
lose weight, which allows you to exercise harder and lose even more
weight. Once you get the snowball rolling it will turn into an
avalanche on its own.

The food users are allowed to eat consists of 12 nutrient-rich power
foods. These are supposed to provide all the minerals, vitamins and
fiber your body needs to stay healthy over the six weeks of dieting.
The 12 foods are: beans and peas, spinach and a couple of other green
vegetables, almonds, instant hot oat cereal, wholegrain breads and
cereals, berries, eggs, low-fat dairy products, lean meats (such as
turkey), peanut butter, olive oil and protein powder. All other foods
are to be shunned during the diet.

Sticking to this diet might seem a little hard, especially for as long
as six weeks. However, the mandatory exercises should make a big
difference. Not only that you lose weight, but you also get to show
off a nice set of abs and a far better toned body than before. One
extra thing on your side is that part of the fat will be replaced by
muscle, so even if it seems that you're not losing much weight, you're
actually shifting weight from fat to muscle. Nevertheless, you can
expect to get rid of up to 12 pounds in the first two weeks of dieting.
