What It Is
Cheat Your Way Thin by Joel Marion is a scientifically-based nutrition program that teaches you to work with your body’s metabolism, instead of against it, to lose weight. The concept behind this program is that since your body adjusts to traditional dieting by continually lowering your metabolism as you eat less, this program teaches “strategic cheating” combined with “carbohydrate cycling” to increase your metabolism.
Joel does an excellent job of simplifying the scientific explanation of how this plan increases your body’s fat burning hormone production so you can lose weight while incorporating the “bad” foods you love into your diet.
What It’s Not
This is not a completely low carb or low fat diet, although there will be some days where you will be eating lower carbs than others. Calorie counting is not necessary. This is not a fad diet – it is one you can live with permanently.
It is not an exercise program, although there will be basic exercise information that will come after purchase through emails and on the interactive blog.
Who Is This Program For?
This program could be for anyone who wants to lose weight or body fat, regardless of their current level of fitness or age. It recommends eating 6 meals per day, so you should never go hungry.
Since you get to include all foods that you love as part of the “strategic cheating” and it claims to actually raise your metabolism by creating fat burning hormones, it seems to be a good plan to use to not only lose weight, but to maintain weight loss.
Why Should You Listen To Joel?
Joel Marion is a nationally published author and fitness personality, appearing on TV networks NBC, ABC, and CBS, is a frequent guest on SIRIUS satellite radio, and has been featured in the pages of more than 20 popular national newsstand magazines including Men’s Fitness, Woman’s Day, Maximum Fitness, Oxygen, Clean Eating, MuscleMag International, and Muscle & Fitness Hers.

What Are Other People Saying?
In eight weeks, I cheated to drop 18 lbs and 14.5 inches! I’m now fitting back into jeans I wore almost 10 years ago in high school, and there’s no way I would have been able to do it without The Cheat Your Way Thin program. I’ve never been able to stick to a diet because I’ve never been able to week after week deprive myself of my most favorite foods; well, with The Cheat Your Way Thin program, I didn’t have to!

I have done this diet and it works better than anything. On my cheat day I would completely satisfy any craving and by the end of the week easily 1 or2 pounds down! Also did the mixed intensity workout.

The program worked wonders for me; I still eat chocolate cake, pizza, and my favorite pasta dishes, and I have been able to lose over 20 pounds in under 3 months.

CYWT is not the “be all and end all” as an all-around nutrition program or as an exercise program. For those, we recommend the Diet Solution Program and Truth About Abs.
