About this listen
Fad diets, especially low-carb diets, do not work long-term. Just look at the science. These trendy "plans" usually end up making you fat. Why? They cause you to lose precious fat-burning lean muscle. And that slows down your metabolism and speeds up your weight gain. But with the 3-Hour Diet you will lose two pounds every week, starting first with belly fat.
The key is to reset your metabolism with Jorge's revolutionary Visual Timing formula that has already helped millions of his online clients. This secret allows you to eat anything by ensuring you automatically eat every three hours. Based on the latest science, this plan will also reduce the stress hormone cortisol, which is responsible for stubborn belly fat. No foods are off limits with the 3-Hour Diet. It's time to lose weight and bring back the joy of eating.

Story
Timing is everything when it comes to losing weight. Or, as celebrity trainer Jorge Cruise explains: When we eat is as important as what we eat. Building on the scientifically proven but hard-to-sustain day-on, day-off technique known as “intermittent fasting”, Cruise has developed a revolutionary master plan that simplifies your calendar and eliminates between-meal hunger. He divides every day into two easy-to-remember nutritional zones: a 16-hour evening and overnight “burn zone” (semi-fasting) followed by an eight-hour “boost zone” (eating).

Buy the Book -- Skip the Audio
When I buy an audiobook, I expect to have the same information as in the book. This 'audio book' was really more of commercial for the real book.
Here is what you get:
- 60 minutes of why this is better than other diets
- 60 minutes of short motivational messages that you are supposed to listen to in 2-3 minute installments over the next 28 days
- 30 minutes of user testomonials.
Sure you learn that you need to eat every 3 hours ... but you need to buy the book to find out what and how much you can eat.
I gave it 2 stars because it was motivational ... but sadly disappointing due to fact that the substance of the book is missing. Got to say I feel a bit conned.
Save your money ... go straight to book and skip this audio.

Waste of a book credit...
This audio book was a waste of a book credit... half the time was spent on daily meditations the other half on testimonials... nothing about what daily diets or what snacks or treats could consist of or how to balance your diet... this review is for the audio only... maybe the book is better... I hope so because after listening to the audio I have no clue how to start....
