Dr. Siegal’s COOKIE DIET …..Eat Cookies & Lose Weight! July 27, 2007

Dr. Siegal and his COOKIE DIET™ have been featured on ABC’s Good Morning America, Fox News, CNN, the New York Post and dozens of other media outlets in the U.S. and Canada. More media appearances are scheduled.

Dr. Siegal’s® COOKIE DIET™ was created in 1975 by renowned physician, author and weight-loss expert Sanford Siegal, D.O.,M.D. More than 500,000 overweight people have used Dr. Siegal’s hunger-controlling foods. However, until recently, the only place to get them was at Dr. Siegal’s clinics in Florida or from several hundred doctors to whom he provided them. CookieDietOnline.com was launched on May 14, 2007. With almost no advertising, first two months’ sales were about $500,000 and the pace is accelerating daily.

CookieDietOnline.com is the exclusive online seller of Dr. Siegal’s® COOKIE DIET™ products.

How Does it Work?

Siegal’s plan is actually a very low-calorie diet, in which six of the special Siegal cookies are eaten when hungry during the day, along with eight glasses of liquid, and only one meal is eaten, dinner, consisting of 6 ounces of lean protein (chicken, turkey, fish or seafood only), plus one cup of vegetables.

The total calorie count of the diet comes out to approximately 800 calories per day, and total carbohydrate intake is about 70 grams per day, making Siegal’s program an extremely low-calorie, low carbohydrate diet.

The cookies, which Siegal claims have amino acids with appetite suppressant properties, are available in chocolate, raisin or coconut flavors, but even Siegal admits that they don’t taste very good. Don’t look for them on your local store shelves anytime soon, however. Siegal’s cookies are available only to patients at his weight loss clinics (five are in Florida, and one is in Montreal), as part of his weight loss treatment program.

Food Hype recommends this diet if you’re looking to shed some weight fast but this is not the type of diet that should be used for long term weight loss. After reaching your ideal weight we would suggest finding an alternate diet.
