Lose 10 pounds in 3 days

Diet works on chemical breakdown and it is proven. Do not vary or substitute any of the foods. Each meal must be eaten at one sitting. NO saving for later. Salt and pepper may be used, but no other seasonings. Where no quantity is given, there are no restrictions - other than common sense.

This diet is used three days at a time. In three days you will lose 10 pounds. After three days of dieting you can eat normal foods, but don't overdo it! After four days of normal diet, start back on your three day diet. You can lose up to 40 pounds in a month if you stick to it. This is a safe diet. Remember, do not snack between meals. You are allowed diet soda on this diet.

Third day is the hardest, but don't give up because it does really work. Drink water if your tummy growls- it really works.
