The EODD Diet – Does it Work?The EODD diet is one of the most popular online diet plans today, and has helped thousands of people worldwide to lose weight successfully. The diet let’s you eat 4 meals per day, which means you don’t have to worry about…

There are 3 different eating plans based around the same concept on the EODD plan. The choice you make depends on how quickly you want results and/or how much weight you need to lose. The basic, easiest program allows you to do what it says; ie, every second day you have a time period where you can basically eat what you want (this is not all day but a time period during the day). Of course, sensibility needs to be prime here. You can not expect to lose weight at a reasonable pace if you use your time to gorge yourself silly but if you use this time to enjoy your favorite foods, or a relaxed lunch with friends then there is no need to think you’ve “blown it”. Weekends are generally more relaxed also with more freedom allowed. The idea behind this program really is that calories are restricted one or more days and increased on another so your body does not drop it’s metabolic rate. The most strict form of this diet restricts the overall week’s calories more by reducing the number of days you can feast and what you can feast on – but of course, the choice is entirely yours and I personally have found that cycling between the program is great for me. Some weeks I can be very strict, and others I just have that ‘need’ for more comfort food. It has taught me though how to deal with difficult weeks and not fall off the program just because I ate cake or enjoyed myself too much at a party.

The program is based on what he calls five feeds per day the ‘SNAPP’ system. SNAPP stands for Shake, Nuts, Apples, Protein, Produce. There are menus for the Shakes and Protein ie Breakfast and Dinner but don’t fret if you don’t like the sound of shakes for breakfast or nuts & apples for snacks, he provides alternative menus and snacks. There is no calorie counting on this plan and the amount of food you eat is based upon your current weight but Jon gives you a very easy system to work it out. You also receive regular e-mails and free access to his members support forum so you can ask questions, share recipes and get support the whole way. Currently, Jon is running a promotion where, if you purchase the Every Other Day Diet, you get his 7 Minute Muscle program at 77% off the original price. I’m not sure how long he is running the promotion for but am pretty sure it’s still available at this time. This is where you will find great exercises that you can do either at home (like I do) or in the gym. You can view these online as well as see them in the book. Jon has devised a way of exercising that reduces the time spent ‘working out’ but getting just as good results as those guys who practically live in the gym. I swear by it.

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
