Choose your UnDiet plan based on your previous eating habits, how much you like to cook, and how much taste you have for "healthy food". Each plan (except Protein Binge) allows for deviations while still maintaining the fundamentals that will keep you on track. Obviously the closer you stay to the track the healthier you'll be and the quicker you'll lose all those unwanted pounds. But it's much better to be happy with what you're eating and be able to easily incorporate the plan you choose into your daily schedule. So start where you feel the most comfortable and phase into each successive stage or plan when you feel ready.
Start the first day of the rest of your life by going through your refrigerator, cupboards, and all your secret stashes looking for Forbidden Foods. Throw them away. You will never eat them again.
Or if you're like me and hate to waste anything, cook up a storm and invite a bunch of friends over for a backwards potluck. It's backwards because instead of everybody bringing something and ending up with a hodgepodge buffet of food, you're providing a hodgepodge buffet. I didn't call it a dinner party because none of the food "matched" - there was a Mexican casserole, Italian pasta, lots of desserts ... Then I packaged up all the leftovers and gave them to my guests as they departed at the end of the evening.
Even after the Backwards Potluck I still had lots of food, so I cooked up another storm and delivered meals to some single parent families in my church and neighborhood with a little note of encouragement for the great job they were doing. Oh well, that's what I did because I love to cook and hate to waste, you may just want to throw it all away, or donate it uncooked to a local food bank or needy family.
Make sure to print out and read through Forbidden Foods, the Food Pyramid and the Daily Diet Chart. No need to go there now, you'll be led there by the "Next" arrows.
Several book titles are mentioned throughout these pages. They are each linked directly to the site where you can order them. If you choose to order them now, do so, then return to this site to continue your UnDiet education. If you don't choose to order these books now, there is a book review page towards the end of this site, which is also listed in the home page's table of contents.
I've given each UnDiet Plan it's own page to make it easier to access and print out. Each plan is an entity onto itself which means that certain sections may be repeated for each plan. I did this because I think it's irritating to be following a plan and have it say something like "follow previous plan steps 1-3, then ..." I'd much rather have each plan spelled out in it's entirety. Since many of you may be reading through each plan though, I've marked in bold the information that is new to make it easier to skim.
You'll find links throughout these pages which will lead you to more information about the linked item. It's not necessary to follow these links to achieve success with the UnDiet. The information is there for those who want to know "why?" If you're the studious type I'll be continually expanding this background information, so bookmark this site and check back every month.
