The Rapid Waist Reduction Diet targets fat loss in the most critical area of the body: the waist. Research shows that your waist measurement is a key indicator of your risk for developing type 2 diabetes and many other diseases, which is why Dr. Colbert says, Your waistline is your lifeline. In just a few months, as you progress through the four phases of this program, you will experience dramatic results in both your waist measurement and your weight. Based on Simeon s protocol, which combines a 1,000-calorie diet with hCG sublingual tabs (FDA compliant), Dr. Colbert s Rapid Waist Reduction Diet is the last diet you will ever need.
