Fat Loss Factor Review: Will it Work?

Fat Loss Factor Program is a complete weight loss package and helps you to loss the right weight fast. This means burning fats at your tummy, around your legs and back of your arms while keeping your buttocks and breast firm.

Losing weight is not the main concern in the program, instead this book sets you in the right direction to a healthy lifestyle. It covers all aspects from diet and nutrition to exercise, goal-setting and having the right mind-set to get in shape.

As there isn't a one size fits all package, Fat Loss Factor is designed to cater to the needs of different types of people.

There are 3 plans for you to choose from:

1. Steady Weight Loss Plan

Shed an average of 1 - 2 pounds weekly.

1. Quick Weight Loss Plan

Shed an average of 3 - 4 pounds weekly.

1. Turbo Weight Loss Plan

Shed an average of 5 - 6 pounds weekly.

If you are a beginner, you can also start with the steady weight loss plan and slowly build up or go for the turbo weight loss plan if you really need to loss those weights fast.

Fat Loss Factor Program does not take the magic pill approach, instead it teaches you how to get a lean and healthy body the practical way by doing consistent dieting and exercise.

At the start, the Dr Livingston talks about the 1st principle, which is to prepare yourself for success. You will need to take basis statistics like your measurement, your weight, even take photographs etc and record the information in your fitness journal.

There are 11 principles sprinkled all over the book to help you along the way and these 11 principles I believe, are the keys to keeping you motivated.

Fat Loss Factor is divided into different phases.

Phase 1 - Master Cleanse:

This stage lasts for 14 days, it is a detoxification process to flush the toxins and other additives from the body so that your body can be in the best state for losing weight effectively during the program.

Detoxifying also gives you a stronger immune system, more energy, a better sleep and significant fat loss.

Be warn that this is a fasting period with drinking lots of lemon water and herbal teas. You will naturally feel dizzy, suffer from headaches, mood swings, tiredness etc.

However, I need to stress that this phase is optional and you can choose not to go through with the master cleanse though it is good to know that cleansing of your body will help fat quickly.

I did not really go through the 14 days, I did it for 1 day before I threw the towel, I tried again on the 2nd week and managed 2 days.

There are controversial issue when it comes to this and I will highlight it in the Cons section below.

Phase 2 - The Raw Food Diet:

You will need to go through a raw food diet for 1 week after cleansing which means, "rabbit's food" - tomatoes, vegetables, carrots etc.

This phase is also hard for me to follow so I incorporate raw food in my normal diet.

Also known as the 'Lifestyle Un-Diet', Fat Loss Factor talks about the nutrition guidelines to this diet like Glycemic Index, lean protein, healthy fats, fibre etc. It is a little bit confusing but this section talks about why you have excessive body fat.

There are a lot of things to take note to eat correctly for fat loss and this book is excellent on highlighting what to eat and what to avoid.

Exercise:

Fat Loss Factor gives solid recommendations on how and when to exercise to speed up the results.

Just like the nutrition plan, the exercise workout plan has different options for you to choose based on your current fitness level and the overall results you are looking to get.

The plan spans over 12 weeks and get more intense as you progress. The workout lasts from 30 minutes to 1 hour but there are shorter workouts as alternatives (20 minutes).
