I first heard of the Zone Diet many years ago, but I opted do to Atkins because I loved the idea of eating all the steak I wanted. I lost weight on Atkins, but I soon got tired of my food options. I couldnt stop from craving bread, pasta and rice, even though I had a nice juicy rib eye steak in front of me. So I did some research on the Zone Diet and I liked what I saw. The Zone Diet is based on eating proper proportions of protein, carbs and fats and it works to help people lose weight based on the combination of foods and when you eat it. Since Ive been on the Zone, I dont crave any foods because nothing is forbidden. Ive been on and off the FroZone (clever name!) program for about 8 months. I would complete a 14 or 28 day program and then do the Zone on my own for a few weeks. When I do the Zone on my own, I dont calculate protein and carb grams- that would be too complicated. I just estimate and eyeball the correct proportions and it works fine for me. Although I do like to cook, preparing my own Zone meals can get time consuming, which is why I always go back to the FroZone program. The prepared meals are convenient for me and it teaches me to get used to smaller portions. Im at my ideal weight and this program has helped me to achieve it and maintain it. I also recommend the Omega-3 supplements because the supplements help to provide the fat portion of the protein-carb-fat ratio.
Pros: convenient, healthy
