Dr. Oz and the 4 Hour Diet: Complicated, Counter-Productive, and Confusing to Your Body

Dr. Oz and his guest Tim, who is NOT a doctor, but a self-proclaimed guinea pig shared some of the worst advice about weight management with his 4 Hour Diet.

It’s complicated and you will most likely be unable to tolerate the stupid suggestions that Tim made to enable you to lose a few pounds by doing some ridiculous things to burn calories.

It’s counter-productive. While you are spending more and more time trying out these ideas to burn a few extra calories, you are going to become a raving lunatic who exhibits obsessive or compulsive behavior. This is a mental case that defies reason, even though he claims that there is good science behind his data. Poppycock!

It’s confusing to your body. Your body is going to wonder what in the world you are thinking by doing things to it that are irrational, damaging, and forceful in a negative environment of demanding it to do something when you are really engaging in erratic behavior by pigging out, eating too much protein all at once, and shocking your body with ice.

Dr. Oz said that there are critics and I am going to take a stand of being a vocal one. I could never get behind these regimens just for the sake of losing a couple of pounds while you are cheating your health by participating in harmful activities.

Look…there are smarter and better ways to approach weight management. I expect you to use your inherent intelligent and throw out these ideas of Tim’s with your bath water…

At best, he is giving people an excuse for unhealthy behavior by covering for those choices with extreme measures to shock the body back into calorie redemption. Yikes!

No one in their right mind would willingly do this to their body. It is bordering on being abusive. Only a masochist would be able to justify doing this to his body. I hope that you show kindness to your body. You’ll get better results which will last a lifetime.

If you are going to pig out once a week to justify Tim’s plan, then you are going to damage your long-term health. I looked at those cupcakes and all the other junk food that was on the table that Tim and Dr. Oz approved of for your binge day. I would NEVER put any of those foods in my beautiful body, let alone stuff my stomach and gorge my gut with that crap! Just refuse to lose your mind…

The only decent and rational thing was to do some squats following a meal with excess calories. But you don’t have to indulge in horrific processed foods before you do some exercise. This guy is brutal…

If you are going to sit in front of your TV and ice your neck, your chest, or any other part of your body; then you need to stand up instead and take a long walk. Ice may be useful for sports injuries, but you are silly to suppose that the average person is going to willingly endure daily ice packs for a period of time. If you choose some other more productive activity in the time that it takes you to prepare the ice packs, you’ll be ahead of the game. Use your brain, people!

If you are going to wake up in the morning and engorge your body with tons of protein, then you have just had the wool pulled over your eyes. You would be starting on a path to unhealthy and ridiculous behaviors that will ultimately betray you. Your health will suffer… The idea that you can eat a bunch of sausages or half a dozen eggs just to try to trick your body into metabolic freefall; then think again. There are definitely better ways to go about supporting your body to utilize the normal calories you ingest with a healthy breakfast. I find it appalling to resort to gimmicks and tricks… Just say, “NO”…

Tim is twisted. Dr. Oz is on the fence with this and gave his usual caveats… I am taking a firm stand and telling you to find another way. There are healthy ways to manage your weight and then there is the 4 Hour Diet that will devastate your health over time.

Dr. Oz and the 4 Hour Diet Disaster Plan

You can begin to be more satisfied with your weight by eating whole foods and eliminating processed foods. If you want to do something that doesn’t take any time at all that will result in an average weight loss of two pounds a week; then you can take four minutes a day to take Vital 18 with juice or chocolate soy milk three times a day with two good meals and a healthy breakfast. This has worked for people for decades in this country and in other parts of the world. It tastes good, it is pleasing to your body, and you will prefer it to the disaster plan that Tim presented to you today on Dr. Oz.
