The premise:
- No Snacks
- No Sweets
- No Seconds
Except on days beginning with S.
My thoughts:
I don’t think this would work for me. I would be starving by dinner for sure. I also don’t like the implications of the blood sugar rises and dips this would give you. There is no portion control either so if you wanted three cups of cereal for breakfast it technically counts, there’s an implied “eat heathly meals” but I think limiting calories makes you make better decisions about what to eat since you can eat more healthy foods than you can fatty food.
I do like the idea of cheat days, maybe not two in a week but I think its a good idea, it usually pulls your body out of starvation mode plus it keeps your motivation up.
Conclusion:
This diet isn’t for me but I can see it helping people out, especially if you’re just maintaining.

I don’t think I could do this unless I was still smoking (appetite supressant). Besides, health experts say it’s better for your metabolism to have small meals and snack throughout the day.
Portion control is most certainly a part of the diet. “No Seconds”.
In the text of the article the author comments that “no seconds” means one physical plate of food.
Three bowls of cereal would certainly be breaking the “No Seconds” rule.
