The Cardiac Diet

So I really need to drop a few KG's so I yesterday I started the Cardiac Diet and I have to say I woke up feeling alot lighter.

The Cardiac Diet is used for heart patients who need to loose weight rapidly before having 
surgery. 

In 3 days you can loose as much as 4.5kgs.

I am trialling this diet, so I thought I would publish it, but if you decide to do this, you do it at your own risk. I researched it on the internet before I started it and I thought it would be suitable for me, you should do the same.

A few things before starting:

1. You must use this diet for 3 consecutive days per week and then after 3 days of dieting, you can eat your usual food

2. Drink alot of water

3.Don't over exercise

4. Do not snack

5. Consult your doctor first or do this at your own risk

6. Follow the diet exactly the way it is, do not vary it

7. Only use the diet for 3 days and then take 3 days off - you must take a break

Here it is:

Day One

·         Breakfast-Coffee or tea, one piece of toast with one tablespoon of peanut butter, and a half of a grapefruit.

·         Lunch-Five crackers and one-half cup of tuna, coffee or tea.

·         Supper-Three ounces of meat, one cup of green beans, one cup of carrots, one small apple, one-half cup of vanilla ice cream, coffee or tea.
