     The 3 Week Diet is a new diet promising quick weight loss.  It’s creator, Brian Flatt, claims that you can lose between 12 and 23 pounds of fat in just 21 days. The 3 week diet is basically a combination of different diets which are chained together into different phases. The diet starts with a detox phase, then an optional fasting phase followed by two different low carb phases.

         As you might imagine with a diet promising such quick weight loss, the diet does seem quite extreme – and to carry out each phase to the maximum is not easy.  As Karen found, it can make you feel pretty drained to start with.  But as it’s only for 3 weeks and the final phase is the least daunting, it is achievable.  It is possible to do the diet in a slightly less extreme form, simply knowing that you’re not maximizing your weight loss.


      As usual to aid weight loss, the weight loss plan includes an exercise program.  This is split into two parts both with different types of exercises.  The required exercise during the program is to walk every day before breakfast. The optional part is a  classic dumbbell based workout program, which is intended to maximize fat burning. As this workout is optional, if you’re not a fan of this type of exercise, it’s no problem, you will easily lose weight without it, but you will slim more if you put in the extra effort.
