Diet.com - Diet Plan Outline

Diet.com's Personality Type Diet program is an online weight loss program that is based on the research of best-selling author Dr. Robert F. Kushner, the medical director of the Wellness Institute at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago. He believes that diets don't work unless they match the dieter's personality. Even before determining which diet personality they have, people need to understand how "scaling up" has impacted their lives, according to Kushner. This means looking back and trying to make sense out of their weight losses and gains over a period of years. It is a unique and practical approach which most diets sorely lack.

Diet.com's program begins with a quiz that pinpoints your eating, exercise and coping personalities. Within each of these three categories there are eight different individual personalities. From there the program focuses on strategies for your specific personality traits. If your the type of person who snacks constantly or is embarrassed to exercise in front of others, the program gives you practical advice to compensate for your individual shortcomings. The program and 24/7 website offers an amazing array of these helpful hints and strategies. Included are meal plans for your eating personality, exercise options for your exercise personality, chat rooms, recipe and friendship boards, and support from nutritionists and doctors.

Diet.com's approach is a breath of fresh air in this industry of scam artists and pill pushers. Healthy eating and exercise is an essential part of the plan, but more important is the focus on your individual traits that have kept you overweight in the past. A subscription or membership is offered for 1,3,6, or 12 months at about $4/week, cancellable anytime, which makes it much less expensive than most other individualized weight loss plans. It is hard to go wrong with Dr. Robert Kushner and his Diet.com "Personality Type Diet." Learn more
