What's the Deal With: The Bagel Diet
Brent Buckman, attorney and former contestant on The Apprentice swears by his new diet: The Bagel Diet. Sounds rather ridiculous doesn't it? Well that is because it is. In a nutshell, this is the diet:
- BREAKFAST: One Bagel toasted with light/low fat margarine and a glass of water.
- LUNCH: One Bagel toasted with light/low fat margarine and a glass of water.
- SNACK: One Bagel toasted with light/low fat margarine and a glass of water.
- DINNER: One Bagel with 8 ounces of meat (lean hamburger meat, chicken, steak (none of them fried) or 97%, 98% or 99% fat free sliced deli chicken breast or sliced deli turkey breast).
- TREATS: One meal or dessert once a week, which has lots of calories (such as, chicken fingers and cheese fries or pizza or cake or an ice cream sundae, etc).
- EXERCISE: No exercise necessary.
- Drink lots of water throughout the day.
This diet is not only boring, but lacks any kind of nutrition value -- Has this guy ever heard of a vegetable or fruit? Not to mention that it lacks incorporating any kind of physical activity. While it may have worked as a weight loss tool for Brent, I would not recommend this diet, not even to my worst enemy.
