Richard Simmons Diet
Review
Richard Simmons Diet? Well, if you can take his personality, he
does offer a well rounded meal plan, lots of motivation, and fun
ways to add exercise to your life. His plan is in line with the
food pyramid and he uses exchanges such as protein, breads, dairy,
that you track on his "food mover." He also offers an online
weight loss club at a standard price of $29.95 for 3 months.
Richard Simmons diet plans provide a variety of choices, plus a
minimum of seven servings a day of vegetables and fruits and two
servings of low-fat dairy foods. The food breakdown on his diet is
60 percent carbs, 20 percent protein and 20 percent fat. The
recommended calorie intake is 1,200+ calories, per day.
Richard Simmons also offers a bewildering array of weight loss
products, supplements and vitamins, including exercise videos,
motivational cassettes, a small cookbook, a dietary instruction
booklet, and a so-called "FoodMover." This is a pocketbook system
to keep track of your food allowances each day.
As to the substance of Richard Simmons Diet Plan, WebMD states:
"The exchange lists and the meal plan will provide you with a
great variety of food choices, and they will help you to control
the distribution of calories, carbohydrate, protein, and fat
throughout the day so that your meals can be balanced."
