The Man Diet is found in the book, The Simple Guy Diet and is written by a self-described “pathetically average 50-something male”.
He wanted to lose weight but had no interest in joining a diet club or following a complicated program so he decided instead to focus on making some simple dietary adjustments.
After six months he lost twenty pounds with virtually no effort and his friends and co-workers started asking him for his weight loss secrets.
So he decided to make this man diet available online for a small fee just to cover the cost of the investment in his website.
The author says that his advice is not a prescription or guarantee but simply what worked for him. He outlines five major things that will get a man started on the path to eating better and losing weight quickly:
1. Commit To 30 Days
It takes just 30 days for a man’s habits and weight to change dramatically and when a man makes this commitment everything else falls into place.
The first thing a man needs to do is set an official start date. Remember he doesn’t have to do this forever. Once the man gets to the end of the 30 days he can reassess and decide whether or not he wants to continue.
2. Buy a Digital Scale
Regular weighing can keep a man motivated to make better food choices.
3. Have a Food Roadmap
A complete diet program is not included but some general tips are provided. Men Dieters are encouraged to avoid white foods (rice, potatoes, bread etc.), soft drinks, fried foods and desserts but treating themselves every now and then is perfectly acceptable.
A man should have fun discovering his own solutions to healthy eating and emphasize simple food choices that fit into his lifestyle.
4. Celebrate Your Inner-Cheapness
A Man doesn’t need to buy expensive diet food or supplements and he is encouraged to search for ways to save money while following a healthier man diet.
5. Enjoy The View
