The Belly Fat Cure, Jorge Cruise – Book Review
The Belly Fat Cure: Discover the New Carb Swap System
and Lose 4 to 9 lbs. Every Week
I recently heard Jorge Cruise interviewed by Mike Koenigs regarding making positive, healthy diet changes.
In the interview they discussed Jorge’s latest book “The Belly Fat Cure.” He pointed out that so many people struggle with not losing weight even after diligently counting calories and faithfully exercising.
The key factor that he found got results in his life, and is now helping others, is the understanding, identifying, and elimination of extreme unwanted amounts of sugar the majority of people consume.
I find this interesting since the “sugar culprit” seems to be an ongoing thread in my own life…
My mom was a so called “health food nut” when I was younger and she eliminated most sugar from our diet. One of my brothers went through a lot of whole and living foods courses and he’s always preached the destructive and addicting effects of sugar. And recently I’ve listened to a number of interviews with nutritionist, Karen Hurd, and she goes into great detail on all the different harmful effects sugar has on our body (not just weight gain).
In my personal diet over the last few years I noticed sugar triggering some unwanted reactions, and I was forced to make some changes. So anyway, all that to say, this interview and book sparked my interest and I thought I’d point it out.
Below are some reader comments, reviews, and testimonials, along with some additional information and highlights about the book “The Belly Fat Cure: Discover the New Carb Swap System and Lose 4 to 9 lbs. Every Week” by Jorge Cruise:

Review of Tom Venuto’s Book – The Body Fat Solution:
5 Principles for Burning Fat, Building Lean Muscles, Ending Emotional Eating, and Maintaining Your Perfect Weight
Have you ever wondered why we embrace the mindset that gaining weight during the holidays is to be expected? And we justify it because – on the magic January 1st we’ll of course be starting that health and nutrition program as our New Year’s Resolution…
Well, what’s stopping any of us from making some healthier choices now and actually coming out of the holiday season feeling great? Starting the New Year with a jump start on our health & wellness goals, rather than in the negative zone?
Tom Venuto has a new book out this year, and currently on Amazon’s Best Seller list called:
THE BODY FAT SOLUTION: Five Principles for Burning Fat, Building Lean Muscles, Ending Emotional Eating, and Maintaining Your Perfect Weight. (I’ve got this book on my wish list. 
)
One of the main things that caught my attention to this book is the fact that he takes into consideration a well rounded look at getting fit including the mental side.
“The real secret of success is to understand and intentionally use the power of your unconscious mind. It’s the key to the body of your dreams and everything else you want in life.” – Tom Venuto
The following are some highlights from The Body Fat Solution description:
“…Venuto provides a sound plan that will help us put the brakes on overeating by pinpointing the mental roadblocks and emotional eating patterns that are preventing us from losing weight for good. Guiding readers to dig deeper, The Body Fat Solution explores:
- Why it is so difficult to balance calorie output with input
- What prevents people from eating appropriately and exercising more
- The emotional and psychological factors that sabotage Success
Tapping into his years of training expertise and personal experience, Venuto helps readers change their relationship with food, empowers them to take charge of their lives, and delivers a program that promises dramatic and permanent results.”
REVIEWS:
“…Nothing fluffy about this book: just well-founded scientific research and clearly illustrated direction.” — Library Journal
“…you are taken step-by-step through the essential process of goal setting and reprogramming your mental awareness of the beliefs and attitudes that can sabotage your plans.”
actual portion of user testimonial taken from amazon.com“…My rate of fat loss nearly quadrupled!! For me, it was literally a miracle!…”
actual portion of user testimonial taken from amazon.com“…Near the end of weight loss, fat burners sometimes plateau and weight loss stops. Venuto knows the answers to these problems and lets the reader know how to kick-start it again…”
actual portion of user testimonial taken from amazon.com“…This book is based more for the person who just wants to be in better shape as opposed to the detail of Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle…”
actual portion of user testimonial taken from amazon.com“…provides solutions for regular people who live with stress, a shortage of time, emotional eating habits, and who lack motivation…”
actual portion of user testimonial taken from amazon.com
Also to note: I first heard about Tom Venuto because of his e-book, Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle; which Clickbank rated as the #1 fitness and #1 diet e-book on the internet, with users in 134 countries.
So if you are ready to get a jump start on the January 1st crowd, and begin tackling your fitness goals – you might want to check out Venuto’s resources.
May you continue to have growing prosperity in your health, even as your soul prospers!
Soar higher,
Brenda

Weight Loss Program Review: Fat Loss 4 Idiots
The Journey to Reaching Your Ideal Healthy Weight
Weight loss is a painful struggle in many people’s lives. The reasons and causes of weight gain are numerous and vary from person to person. A variety of health issues and imbalances, mental struggles, a lack of self-discipline, and unhealthy food choices around every corner, are just a few of the culprits.
As with any area in life, I believe it is key to first seek God as our source of help. The Bible tells us to acknowledge Him in all our ways, and then He shall direct our paths. (Proverbs 3:6) He knows what we individually need to change to be at our ideal healthy weight.
Although I don’t like the name, Fat Loss 4 Idiots, I’ve heard a lot of positive feedback about this online diet program over the last year and want to make mention of it. I share with some hesitation because I have not personally tried it, but it does come with a risk free offer.
In 
Fat Loss 4 Idiots, which is a web-based diet program, users are able to create their own weekly meal plans. It offers flexibility and users have 11 days on the plan and then 3 days off.
Their website mentions that users have experienced 9lbs of weight loss every 11 days. For a very obese individual this is certainly achievable and considered healthy. However, for someone that is only 10-30 pounds overweight, losing 9lbs in 11 days is an unrealistic goal and is not recommended. As with any weight loss program, projected results should be taken with a grain of salt.
Putting the hype aside, Fat Loss 4 Idiots is a proven and tested weight loss system that has been around for years. Thousands of users claim satisfying results from this diet. In addition to the testimonials below, you can find hundreds online.
User Feedback:
“I am actually using the Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet right now. I have finished the first 11 day cycle, and lost 8 lbs.”

“If you are serious about losing weight, and looking attractive… If you’re SICK and TIRED of diets that do not work, try THE ONLY of many calorie shifting diets that truly works, and become visibly slimmer.”
Portion of actual user feedback from ezinearticles.com
“The only problem I’m having with this diet are the fruit days….I’m really not a fruit person.”
Portion of actual user feedback from squidoo.com
“I have tried many diets, this one offers immediate results, which is motivating and keeps you going. It’s easy to follow and to the picky eaters out there, YOU choose the foods that YOU like in the diet generator.”
Portion of actual user feedback from weightlosswand.com
To summarize, this weight loss program follows a strategic cycle of user-selected meal plans. It’s flexible, easy to follow, and many have referred to it as one of the most “fun” diets they’ve attempted. You can find out more about this resource at the official site for Fat Loss 4 Idiots.
Let’s do the best with this body God has given us. As Christians His Spirit dwells in us. (1 Cor. 3:16) Remember, you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you! (Philippians 4:13)
May you continue to have growing prosperity in your health, even as your soul prospers!
God bless you,
Brenda
