This has put Bob Greene Diet in what Fat Loss 4 Idiots (lose 40 lbs with Calorie Shifting ) calls the famous diets. Unlike other celebrity diets like Jennifer Lopez diet and Janet Jackson diet, Bob Greene's diet is a well document diet both in paper pack and as an online program. 

Bob Greene is an exercise physiologist, a certified personal trainer, a columnist, best selling author and a frequent guest at the Oprah Winfrey show. He is also an editor and contributing writer to the 'O' magazine and writes for Oprah.com on health and fitness.

Bob Greene's Diet - the Basics

As much as Bob Greene's diet is wide and captures effective weight loss fairly well. It is based mainly on two premises. The first is mitigating emotional eating and secondly increasing your metabolism through aerobic physical exercises. 

Greene reckons "aerobic physical exercises are the primary way that you will improve your cardio vascular (or aerobic) fitness, which in turn will increase your metabolism. 

Cardiovascular fitness refers to the ability of your heart lungs and arteries to deliver oxygen (which is carried in the blood) to working muscles and your muscles ability to use that oxygen to perform work over a particular period of time. 

By increasing the level of your cardio vascular fitness, you are increasing the rate that your body can burn calories. I can't stress how important this is!" 

Obviously as an exercise physiologist this is an area of expertise. Bob Green diet uses weight loss exercise centrally to increase rate of fat burning. He particularly considers power walking, jogging, aerobic dances and stair climbing as the top four most effective exercises. 

Similarly Bob Greene's diet considers emotional eating as a great contributor to excess weight. He believes, "If you can eliminate emotional eating you will archive weight loss success." He covers in depth this issue and suggests tactics like keeping a journal to help pinpoint feeling attached to overeating. 

The diet is divided into four phase. The first phase is mainly introductory to excising including stretching and flexibility. It also sets your diet plan where one eats three meals and up to two snacks in a day. 

Phase two involves starting on cardios. These are further increased in intensity and quantity in phase 3. Strength training doesn't start until phase 4. At this last phase the diet estimates you will have a solid healthy eating plan and you can afford a full workout of strength training and cardio. Like many other diets it is wary of alcohol caffeine. 

Bob Green's diet like Dr Phil's Diet does tackle an aspect of weight loss that is not often tackled by many diets; the aspect of weight loss psychology.   Fat Loss 4 Idiots (lose 40 lbs with Calorie Shifting ) principally approaches weight loss from the two weight loss sciences.

1. Physiology: This entails the manipulation of your body sytems to effect controlled calorie intake and increased expenditure. Bob Greene's diet is very good with the later.

2. Psychology: This is probably the less tackled of the disciplines in weight loss diets. Greene's diet though not thorough does well with emotional eating. The psychology for weight loss is an integral part of a comprehensive weight loss plan. Infact permanent weight loss is impossible without its inclusion in your program.
