Amazing

George reviewed October 8, 2015

It was very hard, but I did this diet 3 months ago, I lost over 60 pounds! And I have been keeping it off fine, I reccomend taking Green Tea pills, as they boost your metabolism and help you burn more fat. Also use your calories on Protein and take vitamins, drink 6 glasses of water a day and you should be fine! Trying it again tomorrow, Good luck everyone!

I'm always fat

Having my exams soon but i'm pressured at the fact that i'm still fat i've tried every diet but i'd end up binging. I'll try this and give my rating. Hope it'll work :')

2 weeks

Leigh reviewed August 24, 2015

I did this diet when I was 17/18 but only lasted 2 weeks. Now, I was super fat. I always have been (spoilt by grandparents) and then had enough. Now, in those 2 weeks I lost 13lb. In 2 weeks!! I was so happy but at a cost! I couldn't even hold a conversation together I was so tired and worn out. I was on the 4th floor at college and It wore me out for the rest of the day just getting to my class. When I started eating again I did put the weight back on but not as fast as expected since I went exactly back to what I ate before. I'd love to do this diet again because the results don't lie, but I'm an adult and have a job I need to keep so I need to be focused... Not turning into a vegetable just to lose a few lbs

feel screwed

I have struggled with my weight ALLL my life I hadnt stepped on a scale for over a year until today last weight check was 209 which was doable ffor me but then I fell in to a scary depression today I am 284 my lowest ever was 117 I dont want to be tht small because I looked sick to be honest I would be content at 140-155.

Giving up my dream of being a body builder!

Alis reviewed June 6, 2015

So for the last 2 years I've been doing weights and working out non-stop! I started this to try and get my eating disorder under control, I was sick of counting calories and fasting all the time! I love food and I want to eat as much as I can, all the time! But I'm uncomfortable with the amount I weigh! Now I know its mostly muscle, but I don't like not being able to fit in my favorite dresses and stuff! So I'm not going to stop my amount of exercise or even reduce it! But I am going to give this diet my whole! I'd love someone to do this with tho! It would sure make it easier and help keep me motivated! :)

Recipe for Failure

Lee reviewed June 5, 2015

Almost nobody can possibly stick to this diet becasue it is too extreme. Triple every number and you still have a really hard core diet that will produce results without risking your health.

thank you

Tyler reviewed May 25, 2015

I'm on week 3 and I have already lost 22 pounds! Just make sure to get your protein and use your calories on healthy food, I am feeling great! This diet is not bad at all!

What is going on?

Nick reviewed May 21, 2015

I am physically sick after reading the specifics of this diet. The damage you will do to your body can't be put into words. Every female I train eats a minimum of 1,200 calories a day and each sees incredible results. Hire an expert immediately if you have any thought, any thoughts at all, of trying this diet.

ABC Veteran

Lady R reviewed May 5, 2015

I tried this diet about three times. The first time, I lost 10lbs (Starting weight: 118, Ending weight: About 108 and I'm 5'0") but I messed it up halfway through. I tried it again and binged after week 2, the third time I tried it, I ended up in the emergency room. I'm now 92lbs and I'm starting the ABC Diet again to reach my goal weight: 80lbs.

I don't recommend this diet, it made me very sick. I love at the end it says "slowly return to normal diet". That is so wrong because your mind will be damaged forever.

This diet is a trap.

I feel like cutting down calories is a good idea. And i think if you're really smart about it and know how the human digestive tract works you'll know that you should eat fruits and veggies. Don't count those. Make sure ur consuming a form of protein. Protein is a fat burner and will give u energy. Drink tea as it makes u feel full. Drink cold water to boost ur metabolism. drink a little soy milk. And make sure girls that ur consuming yogurt with probiotics. Its so important for ur feminine parts. Ur body is striving to get as many nutrients as it can while ur cutting way back on ur calories. Its ok to go over the calories if its healthy. Aka fruits, veggies, greek yogurt. Be strict. But please, u lovely peoples out there, be good to ur bodies. Ur bodies dont mean to be difficult or stubborn. This diet worked really well for me but i did the things im suggesting for u. I was 192 pounds im 5'5" and now i am 125 pounds. I feel really good. I also take one a day vitamins. Theyre crucial to ur system. Good luck. 💚💋

Whoever put this diet up is nuts

Christine reviewed January 3, 2015

This diet is so horrible. No one should do this diet it is extremely unhealthy! You can loose weight healthily by cutting out the bad stuff with a few cheat days every now and plenty of exercise and then not by starving yourself for 50 days! Please don't try this. Get help please! I struggled with my body weight for 6 1/2 years. I was extremely unhappy with the way I looked and it took over my life. I never once thought of starving myself or cutting or making myself throw up because I wouldn't let myself think that I needed to do that so I ate really healthy and I exercised a lot and I lost a lot of weight and got toned. I also began to talk to people about what I thought about myself and they helped me accept myself. Be healthy, not unhealthy. The image of how people should look nowadays is not realistic for everyone. Accept how you are and if you want to make a difference do it by eating healthy and exercising. Please do not do this please please please. You ALL are perfect and beautiful

Be Prepared to Gain it Back

Shelby reviewed September 7, 2014

I followed this diet to a tee and in the 50 day period I lost 50lbs. I went from 185 lbs to 135 lbs, but as soon as I tried to go back to eating normal, all I could do was binge. I am now a whopping 60 lbs up from my lowest weight about a year after finishing the diet and now have a binge problem. Be prepared to have psychological difficulty in going from this restricting diet to trying to eat normally again.

4 stars

leigha reviewed September 1, 2014

my review was 4 stars not 1. it messed up.

I would give it 5 for effectiveness but I did 4 because you do not need to take the calories this low for it to work. Heck add 200 a day to the numbers or double them and you will still lose a ton if you are overweight

it works

leigha reviewed September 1, 2014

You don't need to follow this to the letter. You will lose even doing 500 day and every 4th day going up to 800 or 900 cal (to kick metabolism) or doing 2468. Its all the same. It is just restriction.

You will be fine if you are overweight. Gastric bypass patients are probably the unhealthiest group out and they eat this little plus they had major surgery!. People on reality shows like Survivor eat this little for a 6 weeks and handle it. It is only dangerous if you are underweight or have a health condition.

If low cal is too had for you try alternate day fasting. It was the best diet I ever did. I ate anything I wanted one day and fasted the next. I kept doing the alternate day fasting..You can even eat up to 300 cal on the starve day as long as you burn it off. Works like a charm. Its a metabolism tricker. Read up on the benefits of alternate day fasting and see what I am talking about. It becomes so easy to resit eating on fast day when you know tomorrow you can have it. I lost 30lbs in 6 weeks doing it.

You do not put weight back on after diets if you maintain better eating habits and begin exercising. By that point the goal is maintaining which is easier to do. Weigh weekly and if you go up a pound eat light for one day and take it back off. 2 lbs..2 days of diet.. Simple.

6 weeks is not going to destroy a metabolism forever. That is a myth. Long long term dieting maybe, but a few months. The only real concern is not becoming eating disordered by obsessing too much on calories and weight. Alternate day fasting saved me from that though. Taught me to eat to live and not live to eat.

ABC

E reviewed August 3, 2014

I will admit to having done this diet before, but I am a perfectionist. If I go over a little bit, I automatically restart. I've probably spent the most time consuming around 500 calories/day and I ended up going from 180 down to 98. Now I have gained weight again from stress and medication issues (I am like 140?), and I will be starting again tomorrow...

amazing

nina-louise reviewed July 19, 2014

This is my 4th time doing this diet. I completed it twice and lost 20lbs each time. I have gained a lot due a six month hospital admission, but I am going back onto this diet starting today with a friend. I love it!

Day 9

Devyn reviewed July 16, 2014

I am on day 9 (today) and I started this diet at 162. I am so excited to say I now weighed myself yesterday and have already lost 10 pounds. I can't believe I finally found something that works. It takes a lot of willpower. You have to be strong,but trust me it works. I haven't done much hardcore exercising either. I walk about 20-30 mins a day, sometimes a little more, but that's it. I wanna start jogging or something. I think that will help the weight come off even faster. My daily meals consist of egg whites, fruits and veggies. The occasional lowfat treat once in awhile when I'm really craving something sweet lol, so happy this is working for me. Also, people shouldn't judge because everyone is different and you should be able to look in the mirror and be happy with how u look. If u aren't then make a change. Will update further down the road. Good luck everyone!!!!

Best Diet Ever

Bre reviewed June 27, 2014

This is the best diet I've ever been on! I was on it in December of 2013 and lost 30lbs! I want to lose some weight, I wish I would have started it earlier. What's done is done, but in on day six and have already lost 8lbs! :D

Yes it works

Emma reviewed June 25, 2014

Yes this diet does work and no you won't gain it all back. I was obese 220lbs. Last year after multiple failed attempts to diet I turned to laxitiives in desperation. These worked very well I lost 20 lbs in a month without really doing anything else. The key is to take off days on with those so you don't need more and more.

Then I was hired to be for a new joband knew that laxitiives wouldn't really be feasible because the lax will make you go all the time and my new job prevented me from having Access to a bathroom all the time. So I turned to abc. The prior weight loss gave me the motivation to stick to the abc. I stuck out the whole 50 days and lost 37 more lbs. It was hard but worth it. I slowly went back to a normal diet. When I say slowly I mean I took about 2 months before I began eating over 1000 calories. It's been a year and I have maintained my weight and not put a lb back on. I am going for another round and hope to hit my goal weight this time. Yes this is unhealthy but for some of us this is the only way it works and I would rather spend a few months being unhealthy than to remain overweight for years because being overweight isn't healthy either. Good luck girls!!!

Through my 20's I lived on 500 calories a day and I stayed thin. I popped a couple of kids out and now I'm in 170lbs. I'm ready to get back to this and so tomorrow I start the boot camp! Wish me luck I'm hoping by the end of the boot camp to be low 150's if not less. Then going further of course from there.

Ana reviewed November 15, 2013

I'm 5'5ft (165 cm) and currently weigh 115lbs (52kg). I'm gonna try this 50-day diet for fun.

In mid dec 2012, I was 119lbs (54kgs) and started a diet plan. Then in early feb 2014, i went down to 95lbs (43kg). Yup, 22lbs (10kgs!) in 1 month+!! No exercise/work out - just purely diet. I was skinny til the point that i could not wear a S size dress as it was too loose. I had to buy new clothes that were XS. After a few months i began to eat normally. Now I seriously feel "fat/obese". I know i'm not fat, but it's a mental effect thingy. I so miss that "slim-old-me". Oh well...

And so, I'm gonna try out this 50-day diet and go down to at least 2 dress sizes. (X'MAS is coming~!) Yup, that's my goal. Nope - I don't wanna die(yet) as i do know how to trick my body - thinking that it is receiving food and preventing my body from shutting down or turned into starvation mode.

Good luck, to all u beautiful!

P.S: If u ever feel dizzy, groggy, blurry/black vision, pls STOP right away! That means your body is shutting itself down. When it does, down some sweet stuff like a fruit bar, chocs or have some fruit juice.

Ok, now let the 'FUN' begin!

Excited!
