About

If you’re reading this site then it’s safe to say weight loss is on your mind. That’s a good thing! After all, most of us struggle with our weight at some point during our life. As of today a full 65% of Americans are either overweight or obese and this has lead to a frightening increase in heart disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and more. Doctors and researchers spend millions of dollars searching for “cures” for these diseases when we already know that the best way to dramatically reduce our risk of these diseases is to lose weight and get into shape. Of course, losing weight is never as easy as it sounds and weight-loss programs can be complex, expensive, or both.

The Authors

My name is Kathy and I am the primary researcher and writer for 4DietReview. For over 10 years I have been passionate about improving and maintaining my own health. A healthy body weight was a central goal, since  I’d had weight swings of about 20 pounds for much of my life. One day it occurred to me that I needed more information in order to reach and maintain my ideal weight. I went on a mission, searching for the newest health, diet and nutrition information I could find. This eventually allowed me to find a healthy diet plan that I used to shed those 20 pounds for good. Today I maintain my healthy weight while enjoying my favorite foods in moderation. If you are interested in the plan I use, please refer to our review on Fat Burning Furnace (FBF).  I personally found the program to be excellent, as it combined sound nutrition with a practical exercise program for overall health and fitness.

I have also followed Dr. Weil’s eating guidelines for some time, as the FBF Diet’s eating plan is similar to Dr. Weil’s plan.. His website is: http://www.drweil.com. Dr. Weil’s plan has some components of the Mediterranean Diet, but is updated with his own recent nutritional discoveries. Both Dr. Weil and Fat Burning Furnace focus on nutrient dense foods.

Once I met my own personal weight loss goal, my interest in health, wellness and weight management continued to grow and I decided to pursue a certificate in health and wellness. Today I am certified as a Holistic Life Coach, which teaches a holistic or ‘wholly-integrated’ approach to our body, mind, and spirit. I’ve chosen to specialize in writing on health topics for the body, focusing on nutrition and weight management here on 4dietreview.  My partner, Rich also writes for us, while also maintaining the creative and technical aspects of the site.

This site was built both as a way to share our ideas, tips, and inspiration for healthy weight loss and as a motivation for ourselves. Each week at 4DietReview we read, research, and review the newest diet plans and put the reviews online for the world to read. Our goal is to take the guesswork out of choosing your next diet plan by helping you select the best diet plan for your lifestyle that will help you lose weight quickly and safely! We also strive to be different by providing the most honest, comprehensive, and objective information since we review a wide variety of diet programs. We put pictures or videos of the products on the reviews when we can, to give you as much information as possible. Please bookmark this site if you like, as we will add more diets each month.

Everyone is different. We all live different lifestyles and prefer different foods. Everyone gains weight in different places and loses weight differently too. We created this site to address the variety of needs that our readers may have, and to provide as many healthy weight loss ideas, tips, and tricks as we can as well as to inspire others to lose weight. This is why we cover such a wide variety of diets ranging from fat burning diets, to low calorie diets, to fast weight loss diets and everything in between. We want this site to be unique in that it is about real people sharing with real people. We hope you enjoy it and we always appreciate your comments and feedback!
