The 400 Calorie Fix Diet revealed on The Rachael Ray Show

Details about the 400 Calorie Fix Diet were revealed today on "The Rachael Ray Show."

Rachael's guest confirmed our suspicions by describing how she lost six pounds in two days by eating four meals of 400 calories a day.

When you think about it, there really is nothing miraculous in this diet. In fact, it follows the same basic advice of all weight loss programs: consume fewer calories than you burn. Depending on your body weight, most people will lose weight if they take in 1,600 calories a day, whether or not they do it in four, eight, or one meal.

(Of course, spreading out your food intake is always a good idea, because it helps your metabolism run at a steady level.)

How the woman was able to lose six pounds in two days is a bit of a mystery--my guess is that she lost some water weight. But, if she sticks to the plan, she will also likely continue to lose pounds.
