The Fast Fat Loss Plan is a media-based weight loss plan. It was created by a company called American Beauty and Fitness LLC which has made many health and fitness education products such as books and movies meant to “celebrate and teach a healthy lifestyle”. The company is promoted as being staffed by diet, fitness and bodybuilding professionals. However, the website fails to include detailed professional information about these experts particularly in terms of experience. People need to know such things as it not only gives credibility to both the company and the product, but at the same it provides consumers with an idea about the quality and reliability of product being offered to them. In this review, we shall be taking a closer look at Fast Fat Loss Plan to see the concept behind it and how valid it is as a weight loss option.

The Fast Fat Loss Plan book is a guide to help dieters plan their daily menu quickly by following “food schedules”. Another feature of this plan is the “Easy Visual Guide” which teaches people how to eat properly. However, we noticed that the information provided in this plan is not new or much different from what we have seen in many other weight loss systems.

In the DVD, Julie Green speaks on the “Top 20 Things You Must Do to Lose Fat Fast” as well as on how people can create their own plan of action. The latter is actually the core principle of this system but disappointingly, it is not discussed very well on the website. Because of this lack of information, it becomes difficult for people to assess the plan and decide whether it suits them or not.

Having said that, we do appreciate it that exercise is given importance in this plan as this is often not the case in other diet plans. Having an exercise component will enable dieters to maximize their potential to lose weight. The plan also includes a discussion about what is in the food we are eating, in particular the hidden calories which may be high in fat while appearing not to be so.

Another noteworthy thing mentioned in this plan is the value of taking holistic supplements. A good quality, all-natural herbal supplement can do a lot in helping dieters boost their weight loss program. For example, hunger and appetite control is perhaps one of the most difficult aspects of losing weight. When dieters begin to exercise they also begin to feel hungrier and the temptation to binge and overeat may become just too much to overcome.

Fortunately there are appetite suppressants such as Hoodia which has been proven in clinical trials to be highly effective in decreasing hunger and keeping food cravings in check. Hoodia works by mimicking glucose. It signals the brain that one is no longer hungry even when the stomach is not actually full.

Positives

• Gives importance to holistic supplementation
• Provides meal plans and other tools

Negatives

• Does not offer in-person or online-based peer or counselor support
• Does not offer anything new in terms of weight loss

The Fast Fat Loss Plan may be ideal for people who prefer a media-based program to guide them through the weight loss process. However, a book and a DVD does not provide the same support and motivation that an in-person or online-based peer or counselor can. It cannot provide direct assistance when people need specific help in increasing their metabolic function or in easing hunger.

As mentioned above, this plan encourages the use of holistic supplements to support weight loss. In our experience, we have encountered people who have successfully managed their hunger with Hoodia while others have been able to maximize their workouts with Advantra-Z® which increases fat oxidation and metabolic function.
