This popular meal plan, also known as the 3-Day Diet, promises to help people lose up to 10 pounds in just one week. As the name suggests, you are supposed to stick to this diet for three days throughout the week, and then for four days, you can eat anything you want. During the three days, you are supposed to eat very low-calorie meals, to offset the higher calorie meals you consume on the other four days. Upon closer inspection, Glassman doesn’t recommend this diet, particularly because it includes processed and refined grains, processed meat with lots of sodium, no snacks, tiny lunches, too much sugar at dinner, and no greens.
