Suzanne Somers diet commonly known as SomerSize diet has been developing through a series of four books. Suzanne Somers Diet 
joins the ranks of Dr Phil Diet
and Bob
Greene's diets
as diets designed by the celebrities themselves.
Somersizing has been transforming along a series of four books that entail the Suzanne Somer diet. Her first book was 'Eat Great, Loss Weight'. Here she recounts where her journey of dieting begun. She was then a single mum and was rejected for a role in a TV series because she was "too chunky" she admits that though she was 29 years old she was 20 pounds overweight. She
narrates with nostalgia how she used fad diets including TWA Stewardess
diet to Waterman diet. Fad diets are so called because they have very
fast results followed by just as fast regains.
The sequel ‘Susan Somer - Get Skinny on Fabulous Food’, improves on the details of the diet. Here she introduces fats as good for health. However in all her diet book she has consistently considered sugars as the enemy. On the controversial side, here she claims she got skinny on fat! Basically SomerSize diet involves eliminating sugars from your diet and eating right combination of what she refers to as somersize food groups. There are four somersize food groups. The first are proteins and fats. Proteins include meat, poultry, fish and eggs. Fats include those in their "natural state" like oil, butter, cream and cheese. The second group is vegetables which includes a host of low starch fresh vegetables from zucchini to pepper. The third is what she calls carbos. These include whole grain pastas, cereals, bread, beans and non-fat dairy products. Finally fruits make up the fourth somersize food group. In her third release, Get skinny she says "The group of food to eliminate are called "funky foods" because they do not fit into any of the somersize food group." These funky foods include white sugar, brown sugar, raw sugar, corn syrup among others. Other eliminated foods are alcohol and caffeine. Interestingly nearly all celebrity diets from Jennifer Lopez diet to Oprahs weight loss are wary of alcohol. Her latest and fourth book which may be consolidation of the SomerSize diet is called Suzanne Somer - Fast and easy. Her diet approaches weight loss in what she refers as two levels. Level one is the weight loss portion of the diet which involves losing fat. Level two is the subsequent level that involves weight loss maintenance. In this second level you need to be acquirng the somersizing lifestyle. Though there are mentions of weight loss exercises, SomerSize diet is primarily an eating plan. This is reinforced by the fact that her book contains quite some length of detailed recipes. The diet notably goes into detail of differentiating simple carbs from complex ones. It points out which ones to use and why. But her position on dietary fat is quite controversial. The liberal attitude towards protein and fats raises suspicion. She does however have anecdotal evidence of the success of her diet on varying individuals. In her website SuzannerSomers.com these is a page dedicated to success stories, complete with pictures. Entry into the SomerSize diet involves 4 steps according to her website. The first step involves purchasing her latest look 'Fast and Easy' to get background information the diet. You do have the alternative of purchasing the SomerSize intro kit instead. It includes her two earlier books and videos describing her whole diet. Step 2 involves joining SomerSize community which you can do free of charge at the website. The next step is skipable and involves a selection of food stuffs you can buy; including somersize pasta and sweets. Step 4 is a commitment stage where you post you "before picture". Hopefully in time, you will post the "After picture" on achieving your success. Like many other controversial weight loss diets, Suzanne Somer diet does have its fans as well as success stories. However it is still wanting on its science as well as calories expenditure in term of increased physical activities. The
truth of the matter is that there is no a "one-fits-all-diet". But on
the other hand there are better diets than others.
