All DietsWhat You Should Know
Jorge Cruise is a nationally known fitness guru who has worked with numerous celebrities to help them achieve their weight loss goals. He has also appeared on many different television programs, including Good Morning America and Oprah and writes a weekly column for USA Today. He has written books and offers products for sale like protein shakes and vitamin packets. His diet plans, with titles like The 3 Hour Diet and The 12 Second Sequence appear to promise results in a minimum amount of time. We will look more closely at this fitness expert to see if his advice and products can really deliver on their promises.
The Jorge Cruise website does not appear to contain much specific information about any of the plans, although links are provided for the various product websites. Cruise seems to just provide enough information to entice dieters with his easy plans and big results; but then they must purchase the book or subscribe to the program to get the full details of the program. However, the books and subscription rates do appear to be pretty reasonably priced, providing dieters with ample information for little money.
Jorge Cruise appears to customize his diet plans to how much weight you need to lose and what your current fitness level might be. We appreciate the fact that his plans seem to incorporate both diet and exercise into the program, although we would like to see a safe weight loss supplement included as well. We find that a supplement that contains a proven fat burner and appetite suppressant can give dieters the edge they need to meet their goals.

Product Features
We are disappointed to find that consumers cannot purchase the Jorge Cruise weight loss books and products directly from the official Jorge Cruise website. However, the links on the website do make it easy for shoppers to find the items, mostly from Amazon. We also like the product websites like the 3 Hour Diet site that provides information and customer testimonials as well as the ability to subscribe to the program. There is a seven day free trial that allows consumers to check out the program and the subscription rate for this particular program is just five dollars a week at the time of this review.
Advantages
- The Jorge Cruise diet programs incorporate a low calorie diet and exercise.
- The 3 Hour Diet comes with a seven day free trial.
Disadvantages
- There is no weight loss supplement included with the programs.
- The names of the plans appear to promise quick results with minimum efforts.
- Programs and products cannot be purchased directly from the official Jorge Cruise website.
- Some individuals experienced weight gain. (See reader comments.)
Conclusion
Many dieters may find success with one of the Jorge Cruise diet programs, and they will be able to choose the plan that best fits their weight loss needs. However, we believe that many dieters also need an effective weight loss supplement with a proven fat burner and appetite suppressant to give them the edge they need to meet their goals. The Jorge Cruise programs do not seem to recommend any such product.
I think its a great book but I would like to know how do you cout a 0/0 food if you have more then one serving a day? Any advice.
[Reply]
That is my question, also. Same thing with a 1/0 food if you eat it 6 times a day…does that count as a one carb serving? Help!

My husband, my cousin and I followed his diet exactly and we have each gained 2 pounds.
This is not a healthy diet…it is basically bread, meat and cheese. Not enough veggies and very, very limited fruit types and amounts. Also, when we went off of the diet, we gained another two pounds…Now he has come out with a special cut back diet for women over 40, which I am. It is only for 1 week. Then what do you do? He never says and since we gained on his Cure Belly Fat Diet… what is next? This is worse than Atkins (not enough veggies), worse than Jenny, WW and the rest because you may not lose anything….

Why so few vegetables on this diet?
[Reply]
This is a modified atkins diet. I have followed it, religiously, for the last 4 weeks. Lost about 1.5 inches from my waste and 5 pounds. That’s it, not too drastic or effective. No magic here. But, some minor results do come. Disappointing! I believ I have gotten the same results when I ate in moderation, no curbs at night, but had all the fruit and veggies I wanted. This diet does not like fruit (?!), tomatoes, and all sorts of veggies. Is that heatlhy? I actually feel it is quite unhealthy as it allows for too much meat, fat, and cheese. That’s too bad for cholesterol. So please be careful!!!

Jorge just put out a 7 day plan. He said ppl had a lot of questions about his org plan. He doesn’t realize there are still questions with this 7 day, no brainer also. One of the meals includes mashed potatoes, well if I am like mos ppl, we add milk to our mashed potatoes, I thought we were not suppose to have milk because it has to much sugar. 2nd, he allows us “2″ squares of 85% choc. Well all bars are different, and what is considered a “square”? I bought the one he shows in his book that is 85% cocoa, the pkg references pieces for servings, and ea piece does not look like a square. Comparing to “bakers”. 2 pieces, = 1 square, and it is in the shape of a square..I wish he had a question and answer board that he could answer some of our questions. there are so many.

Stop encouraging people to rely on pharmaceuticals. What a self-serving greed driven approach to healthy weight loss. Leave Jorge and others who recommend healthy plan alone!!!!
