Does The New Beyond Diet Program Work

Beyond Diet – a comprehensive health and gluten–free weight loss community that was created by Isabel De Los Rios (certified nutritionist and exercise specialist) back in 2008, has quickly become one of the most searched for diet programs.

The main philosophy behind Beyond Diet is eating delicious foods in the right combinations (as per your “metabolism type”, more below) and still make your body look and feel great.

They claim that their mission is to “help a million people and their families to shed their belly fat, fit into clothes that once were tight, have supportive friends, prevent diseases like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and cancer just by eating delicious foods that are also good for them.”.

So how well does it stack up against competitors? Is this just another “shiny diet”? Let’s find out in this review!

First of all, we have to say that the best part of the Beyond Diet program is the collection of healthy recipes included inside a users dashboard, which we feel is so vast and encompassing that one should get the program just for them!

Here’s a simple recipe we found on the beyond diet site:

Balsamic Green Bean Salad:

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ lbs Green Beans trimmed and cut to 3-4 inches long pieces.
• ½ red onions, finely chopped.
• 3 tablespoon olive oil.
• 2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar.
• 1/3 cup chopped walnuts.
• Salt and pepper to taste.

Preparation:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and blanch for 2-3 minutes. The beans should be just barely cooked through and still crisp. Prepare a large bowl of ice water while the beans are cooking. Remove beans from the hot water and place into an ice bath to stop it cooking further. Drain.
• Place the green beans and red onion in a large bowl. Toss in the olive oil to coat. Sprinkle in the balsamic and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Top with the chopped walnuts to serve.

That looks delicious, right? You bet!

 

Apart from these, the beyond diet guys have provided all the recipes in a simple format that’s sortable according to macro-nutrients.

Their claim is that by just eating their healthy recipes (and again – as per your metabolism type), you should start seeing the scales move.

But How Far Is This Claim Legible?

Truth be told, the Beyond Diet program has its sets of pros and cons. You will not find a lot of bloggers or articles on the topic because it is still relatively a new program.

We did find a couple of bloggers reviewing it and could also find one or two unbiased reviews (check this blog and this one).

Undeniably, the majority of people who have engaged in the beyond diet program have successfully lost a lot of weight but at the same time, a particular proportion of these customers have had to face grave consequences as well.

Even though starving is highly discouraged in this program, restriction of certain food items still exists. This, in turn, makes it very hard for the individual to cope up with sudden changes.

Many people have also claimed that they have gained extra weight after finishing the program. Another case study on this program suggested that this diet lacks a proper provision of effective workout or exercise regimes.

On the one hand, this program is good in the sense that it encourages the consumption of organic food items only.

But at the same time, by doing so, the program tends to become highly inconvenient and extra expensive.

Therefore, taking a look at both the sides of this program, one can measure the success of this program on the basis of the following main key points:

Your Own Will Power!

Make sure you are absolutely willing to give your everything to this program because there are no cheat days available on Beyond Diet’s watch.

Long Term Planning

Consider adapting your entire lifestyle according to this program for a very long run because losing weight is comparatively easier than maintaining it. And for that, you need good diet planning.

Prepare Yourself For Extra Expenses

This scheme does include a list of home – made recipes that one can cook and eat at his/her own leisurely time but at the same time, the primary food items in the list are mostly organic in nature and require special ingredients. So, prepare yourself with a higher budget.

Believe In Yourself

In the end, it doesn’t matter what program you chose for yourself. What matters is how much you think you are willing to give up for what you desire the most.

So it does not matter whether you purchase the beyond diet program or go with the Paleo diet, what matters is which one you plan to stick with!

How Does The Beyond Diet Program Work?

Diet programs when not well planned are always a disaster.

The disappointment that comes from the failure to follow a diet plan with no results only makes matters worse. So how do you follow the correct diet plan that has been designed for your body type?

Here is what Beyond Diet program is all about. The plan is ideal for you if you want to know how to eat right and not simply starve yourself.

This is simple enough once you know your body type. Certain foods suit certain body types and this is how the program works. In order to maintain a healthy weight and a fit body, eating foods that suit your body type is extremely important.

The people who have started Beyond Diet program and have seen some changes, state that it is very necessary to consume a lot of water while on the diet.

You are required to drink water as much as half your body weight daily. All of this is listed in a guide that comes along with the diet. It has several recommendations that make it easier for you to follow the diet.

If you feel a little uncomfortable during the course of the diet, you can make minor changes in your diet plan with the help of the main guide.

Now the point of this diet is not only to make you lose weight but to teach you how to eat healthy. Everyone does not lose weight in the same span of time. Even slightly healthy people might take ages to lose a couple of pounds.

Since Beyond diet is a long term diet program, the problem of losing weight in a jiffy does not arise here. It ensures that you lose weight in the healthiest way possible while also introducing discipline in your life with respect to your eating habits.

This way you can gradually start portioning your meals since the emphasis of weight loss is on knowing how many calories your body needs daily and doing the needful.

Concluding…

Beyond diet is certainly a very good diet program if you are tired of all the hyped up (and bordering on scam) products that are shown on the late night tube. If you wish to learn more about it, have a look at this FAQ style review which answers most common user questions.

In the end, 80% of your health and weight loss results do come from making changes to what goes in your body, aka, your food. This is where Beyond Diet triumphs and we would honestly recommend it to all our readers.

Research has proven beyond doubt that it’s your diet that contributes more to your success.

But if you are looking for some quick fixes, magic pills, then this one’s not for you. Maybe you still have few years before you try some failed products and realize the real deals from the bad ones. All the best!
