Okay, when I posted my version of the cookie diet, I had no idea there was actually a cookie diet out there. But thanks to my mother, who is a voracious consumer of news and keeps me informed of the very latest on a daily basis, I have heard about a diet that’s based around eating cookies.
But before you get too excited, these are special cookies that are sold as part of a dietary plan by a Dr. Siegal, and some are calling the regimen half-baked.
Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet
Cookie Dieters drink water and eat six specially developed 90-calorie cookies a day, whenever you feel hungry, followed by a 500-calorie dinner of lean protein and vegetables. The plan was recently featured on Good Morning America. You can watch the story here:

While the cookies look okay, anyone with a good sweet tooth knows looks can be deceiving when it comes to sugary delicacies. Plus, as another fad diet promising quick weight loss, who knows how long-lasting the effects will be. After all, Dr. Siegal’s diet is restricted to 1000 calories a day, a difficult level to maintain. As always, the best plan is to just eat healthy, cut out excess fat and sugar, and get moving! (Oh, and see my other post on a better way to get your cookies, and stay trim too!)

No short cuts to losing weight. The formula is eat really well and burn lots of fat and calories. Simple. Anything else is just smoke and mirrors.
Everything in moderation, right?
