Celebrity Fit Club Diet Review
What You Should Know
The Celebrity Fit Club Diet is a weight loss and fitness program which evolved from the VH1 reality television show of the same name. The television program ìCelebrity Fit Clubî debuted in 2005 and became popular due to its focus on celebrities who had lost their show business bodies and were trying to lose the excess weight and get back into top form. In 2006 Dr. Ian K. Smith, nutritionist and panel member on the show, put the program down in book form titled ìThe Fat Smash Diet.î Now the program is available online, incorporating use of the book, access to the experts from the VH1 show and various website tools such as Meal and Exercise Plans, newsletters, and online community support.

Product Features
The Celebrity Fit Club Diet is designed around four separate phases. The beginning phase is the ìDetoxî cycle during which calories are severely restricted; it is essentially a nine day crash diet. Then the user enters the ìFoundationî stage, more food is added to the plan and exercise is set at 35 minutes a day five days a week. This phase runs for 21 days. After that the third phase ìConstructionî begins. Again exercise is increased and more food choices are allowed. This lasts for 4 weeks until the user enters the lifetime maintenance phase ìTempleî where exercise increases to one hour a day but food restrictions are dropped. The online program contains a variety of tools to allow the user to follow the routine, including recipes and daily meal plans, a sensible exercise program and direct connection to the experts from the VH1 show.

Conclusion
It is tempting to see the results gained by celebrities on the VH1 show and get caught up in excitement about the Celebrity Fit Club Diet. But it is important to recognize that the diet is a full fitness and eating program that requires a lot of time and commitment. It relies on a great deal of exercise and it asks for some pretty severe food restraints without recommending any type of appetite suppressant to help with cravings. While it is a good ideal to have healthy eating and fitness habits, The Celebrity Fit Club Diet may be too much change and commitment for a dieter looking for a way to lose a few pounds.
