What You Should Know

The Hip and Thigh Diet was developed by Rosemary Conley in 1988. Her book remained at the top of the best seller list in the UK for many years. The diet consists of a very low fat, low calorie regimen that restricts certain foods. The book allows dieters to choose from menu options each day which make up the 1200 calorie limit.

Product Features

The Rosemary Conley Hip and Thigh Diet focuses on targeting the hip and thigh areas of the body which many women seem to have a problem with when attempting to lose weight or inches. In her book, Rosemary Conley admits her own struggles with weight loss and over eating. The book contains over 150 recipes, some with vegetarian variations along with exercises that target the hips and thighs. Rosemary Conley claims that her plan is a perfect balance of carbs, fats and protein. Unlike many diets which restrict carbohydrates such as pasta, potatoes, Rosemary claims that when eaten in moderation, they can actually help you to lose weight because of their ability to help dieters to achieve that satiated feeling which can help to control hunger and binge eating.

The premise of this diet is that it will cause you to lose weight specifically in the hip and thighs. However; research suggests that spot reducing is virtually impossible. When a person undergoes a diet and exercise plan, the body tends to burn fat from all over the body, not just from specific areas. There simply is no way to make the body lose fat only from desired areas of the body. In fact, many women often complain of losing fat from areas such as the breasts when attempting to lost weight from the hips, thighs and stomach. The mere fact that this diet is so low in fat and calories may cause dieters to feel hungry and potentially go on a food binge. Recent research has shown that certain amounts of healthy fats such as omega-3 and omega-6 are required for overall health.
