The Burrito Diet – Review
October 21st, 2009 | 
Author: I grew up in the desert of Southeastern New Mexico. So I am no stranger to Mexican cuisine. In fact, I am a good cook with tortillas, rice, beans cilantro, comino, jalapeños, etc. If you doubt this, go check out my Cooking Computers and Other Things blog. So the first time I saw the name of this diet, “The Burrito Diet,” I did a double-take. This is an actual diet and I will even give you an excerpt from it, so you can see for yourself.
The author of this diet did like a lot of us have – he rode the diet roller-coaster. He would get up to a point where he became fed up with his weight then he would diet it off, only to gain the weight back later when he got off the diet. This is a common problem that most of us have faced with dieting and diets – we gain, we lose, then we gain the weight back, and often a few more pounds than you lost. This is NOT good!
Like many of us, he tried diets that involved LOTS of exercise. This is great, but most of us quit at a certain point because the regimen is only acceptable for a body builder or other professional athlete.
The things that this diet does address are common points of failure:
1. Feeling Full
2. Portion Control
3. Lack of Fiber in the Diet
4. Taking in enough WATER to flush your system (note: tea, cokes, coffee don’t count here!)
This is a real diet that I can say may be a workable solution for most folks. If you have an alergy problem with gluten, then you better look elsewhere or try to find or make gluten-free tortillas. But I can recommend this diet as a way to lose weight.
