Do Cookie Diets Really Work?

Have you heard about the various diets that allow you to eat cookies in order to help you lose weight? If you have not, it is true. There are actually diets out there that have cookies as the main staple of the diet. They are called cookie diets. You simply replace your breakfast and lunch with cookies, and you replace any snacks you usually eat with cookies as well. The amount of cookies you are allowed to eat depends on the particular diet. With all diets on the market, you are allowed to eat one sensible meal in the evening such as a reduced portion of lean meat or fish and a cup of non-starchy vegetables.

These type of diets can range from anywhere between 800-1200 calories per day. People who have used the diets to meet their weight loss goals have often experienced weight loss of three to four pounds per week, or twelve to fifteen pounds per month. While this type of weight loss is considered to be too rapid to some critics, it actually happens to be a great source of motivation for the people who have tried these type of diets.

Some of the cookies are formulated from a specific mixture of hunger controlling food proteins, while others are formulated from mostly organic ingredients. The flavors of the different cookies on the cookie diet vary by brand. One brand has five flavors, including coconut and lemon. The other two brands have three flavors each including chocolate, oatmeal raisin and blueberry.

If you decide to try the cookie diet, you should be aware that that you will need to have your evening meals planned out in advance so that there is no chance for you to slip and eat something you should not. Some of the websites that sell these diets offer free recipes for sensible evening meals.

In addition, all three brands of the cookie diet offer a service where you can order the cookies online and have them shipped directly to your home. You will want to make sure and order enough at a time so you will not run out.
