Cheat Your Way Thin Review Basics:
|
Overview |
|
Cheat Your Way Thin is a carb cycling diet (something which has become popular recently), with a cheat day thrown in at the end of each week to make sure your body’s starvation response does not kick in. The main product is the 53 page guide which explains the system to you, but before you start on that you listen to the Gamechanger audio for 17 minutes which explains all the science behind the system to you. You can also listen to the Confessions audio for 7 minutes which explains how the author stumbled onto the system he proposes. Then the 53 page guide gets straight into it and you dive into the 3 different phases of the system. There is a priming phase for 3 weeks, then the core phase which is just a one week plan but you repeat it as often as you need to in order to get down to your target weight. Then you have the maintenance phase which is how you are supposed to eat long term. I like the way there are 5 versions of the core phase to allow for people who react differently to carbs, so if you don’t get results from the main version you can adjust it until it works for you. There are basically 3 different days where you eat different things and the phases mix these up to promote weight loss, you have days with very little carbs, days with low GI foods and then with high GI foods. Then of course the cheat day each week where you eat whatever you want all day. Exercise is discussed briefly with 3 workouts a week for about 20 – 25 minutes a time as the recommended plan. Overall the guide is very concise, but it does skip over some things like why you should drink the recommended protein shake at 9pm each day, and then in the journal there are two things it asks you about in there which are not mentioned at all in the guide so you cannot answer. You are given an easy to follow way to gauge portion sizes, then told how many portions of carbs/protein and fats to have for each meal on the different days (apart from the cheat day which is a free-for-all). Then you are given lists of the foods that you should be eating on those days to get your carbs, then the protein and fat lists are related to all the days apart from the cheat day. You also get some sheets to print out to remind you of what you should be eating, and how much of it, in a separate file. Also a strategies video which takes you through how to eat healthily when out at a restaurant or when travelling, also how to motivate yourself and make the diet as easy as possible. The upgrade gives you a personal email consultation with the author, a set of 28 days worth of meal plans for each of the 3 different types of day (making almost 3 months worth of plans) along with the recipes for those meals. This is much better than most recipe guides people give with their diets because it is actually made especially to conform with the diet, most recipe guides are just a collection of recipes pulled from anywhere which may or may not suit the diet they are given with. You also get a short guide giving you other exercise plans to follow and an Excel spreadsheet to use if you want to count calories rather than doing the portion size system that the author recommends. We emailed in 4 test question for the personal consult and had a response back 24 hours later, although again there was no greeting or anything, he just used the email we’d sent and put in the shortest answer he could below each one, so yes it did sort of answer the questions but more detail would have been nice so we knew how to move forward. |

Cheat Your Way Thin Review – The Good & The Bad:
Pros
- You get a cheat day where you can eat whatever you want
- Has 5 different versions of the core phase to compensate for different people’s tolerance of carbs, rather than trying to force everyone into one plan
- Gives an easy way to measure portion sizes rather than having to count calories (although the calorie counting method is given for those who want that)
Cons
- Have to drink protein shakes every day (more expense and hassle)
- Wants you to exercise in the morning, or the afternoon will ‘suffice’, but almost everyone is at work all day during the week and an evening workout is the only choice
- Doesn’t explain some things, like why you need to drink protein shakes, what is the NEAT score asked for in the journal, and what is the CLT cardio mentioned in the journal?

*Most people will never even finish reading the product let alone take any action on it! So the results above are far from typical.

Customer Support |

Customer service was not great, you are given an email address to send queries to, we sent in a test question on a Tuesday, then we chased them up after hearing nothing by the Friday. Then we received an email on the Saturday with just a link in answer to our query, no greeting, no name, no nothing, which we think is incredibly rude, so there is no forum and rude, slow customer service, so they get only 1 star. Thankfully Clickbank.com handle all payment queries and refunds so you don’t need to deal with them if you want your money back and can get a prompt response. |
