Product Description
It’s a fact: the low–carb craze is everywhere. Another fact: two–thirds of Americans are still overweight and no one is getting thinner. Although low–carb diets produce short term weight loss, the results are not sustainable in the long term. Dieticians, fitness experts, and medical publications are slowly awakening to the fact that the low–carb diet isn’t the answer to weight loss nor a solution to the obesity epidemic.
What is the solution? Jorge Cruise’s THE 3–HOUR DIET reveals that timing is the revolutionary weight loss element that has been kept secret until now. By eating small, balanced meals every three hours you reset your body’s metabolism and achieve amazing results. Eating every three hours turns off your “starvation protection mechanism” ensuring that fat is released and fat–burning muscle preserved. So get ready to lose 2 pounds each week! All with no calorie counting, no starvation, and no deprivation. Bottom line, timing will sculpt your body slim.
With his now trademark easy–to–follow instructions, accessibility, and client success stories, Jorge Cruise’s THE 3–HOUR DIET is a fluid combination of proven success and categorical innovation. Weight loss has never been easier!
Amazon.com ReviewStepping around the low-fat versus low-carb debate, Jorge Cruise (Eight Minutes in the Morning) suggests that losing weight isn’t in what you eat, but rather, when you eat it. The core idea behind The Three-Hour Diet is that by timing your meals and snacks every day, the pounds will come off. No restrictions, no exercise.
While reality is rarely that simple, the advice offered here is nutritionally sound, emphasizing plenty of fruits and vegetables, and filling in with lean proteins, healthy fats, and just enough carbs to keep meals interesting. Following Cruise?s guidelines for portion control, you?ll eat an average of 1,400 calories per day, filling half your plate with fruits or vegetables, and dividing the other half between the rest of the food groups. Healthy meals from fast-food joints and freezer cases are included, and a substantial recipe section offers everything from a bacon and cheese omelet to rosemary lamb chops. A month-long journal is also provided, giving you space to plan each meal in advance (a key part of the diet), along with daily motivational hints and visualization exercises. A few pages cover basic exercises–but the emphasis is definitely on the diet, which Cruise asserts will work, regardless of whether you choose to work out.
Cruise?s straightforward, no-excuses encouragement works well with the simple formula the plan is based upon, and the clever Three-Hour Plate™ makes it easy to keep portion sizes in check. Still, closely monitoring meal time might seem like a challenge to some of the “busy people” for whom the program claims to be specifically designed. If counting calories or net carbs sounds daunting?but keeping a close eye on the clock doesn?t?you might just find weight loss success in these pages. ?Jill Lightner

Tired of fad diets and their lack of results? That’s just how Jorge Cruise, author of The Three-Hour Diet, wants you to feel. Cruise’s guidelines encourage sensible portion control and plenty of vegetables, but–perhaps more importantly–they encourage dieters to feel good about themselves by teaching self-acceptance and positive visualization. Stressing an easy-to-follow visual food plan that insists on incorporating snacks and treats into your day, he contends that carb-bashing is a highly ineffective means of maintaining a healthy weight. How can you sort out weight-loss fact from fiction? Amazon.com contributor Jill Lightner got some straight answers from Cruise. |

I have only just received the book, and started to work out a diet regime based on the book. It is too early to be able to say whether the diet works or not.

I bought 8 minutes in the morning and do the exercises every day–not the “diet” but just the 8 minutes that Jorge says will help me. After 2 years, I have gained 20 pounds. Now, I am trying to eat the foods that I like, as he says to do, every 3 hours and the scale is still going up. Should I do the 8 minutes a day exercising AND eat what I like every 3 hours?
Jorge is the best!! I wish that I lived in San Diego, apparently from the other 5 star reviews, everyone who is having success lives there. Maybe next he can come out with the secrets of that and bring us the San Diego Diet! That, with 8 minutes in the morning and eating every 3 hours just has to be the right combination!

First of all, this book is incredibly sexist. All of the “before and after” pictures of weight loss success are of women!…except for a picture of the author and much information about himself. What? Aren’t there at least a few overweight men in this country who have successfully reduced their weight by using Mr. Cruise’s techniques?
I find cause for suspicion in that 99% of the clinical information Mr. Cruise cites is from studies done in other countries. Why, when there are also many excellent short and long term studies done in this country that he could have included ?????
In addition to the above, this book seems poorly edited in that it is somewhat disorganized and the text does not “flow”.
I do not recommend you purchase this book.

This has been said, written, and sold, a thousand times before.
The basic concept of reducing body fat percentage by when, and how often, one eats, instead of what a person eats, is laughable at best.
In every healthy nutritional and eating program, time, and spacing out meals, is one of the essential principles. It’s just one piece of a big physiological puzzle. It’s not the primary one.
For many people (depending on metabolism and lifestyle), catabolism begins approximtely 4.0 hours after a person’s last meal.
People run a caloric surplus, maintenance, or caloric deficit.
It’s that simple.

This book is highly recommended for those who want the weight loss but can only do minimum exercises.From what I have read so far it seems to be a book that gets right to the point. I hope that some people don’t take it to serious.
It is a great way to set yourself up for success! It guides you through getting mentally prepared to succeed as well as help you to set yourself up with a support system to succeed. It is fantastic!
I would also recommend other book Sex and the perfect lover by Mabel Iam. it has every thing from sex to women and men’s rights issues.
