Three Main Rules
- Dinner must be eaten by 7pm, after that there is no food consumed until 7am at the earliest. (Basically it’s like a 12 hour fast, meaning that if you live by this rule for a year you have fasted half the year!!)
- Three hours must pass between the last time you ate and the time you go to bed. This ensures that you are actively burning calories while the food is initially digesting versus when you are sleeping and burning basically nothing.
- Weigh yourself two times a day. One at night before you go to sleep, and once after using the bathroom in the morning. (This is more a self-esteem booster, you are always thinner in the morning.)
