Jennifer Aniston, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Reese Witherspoon are practically the faces of this new crazy, ridiculous diet. But that doesn’t say much, Gwyneth used to be the face of the raw food diet and l can tell you from experience how much fun that is not!
The newest big diet hitting Hollywood appears to be the baby food diet, yes you read that correctly, Gerber Baby. Eat 14 servings of pureed peas, carrots and sweet potatoes and drop weight. Well of course, if you eat nothing but food meant for 20 lb humans you are going to lose weight.
And I am sorry, the only jar of baby food I would ever consider eating in adulthood would be the sweet potatoes… I won’t lie my mom used to pack them in my lunch in elementary school because I loved them!
But enough of my opinion, I want you to make your own mind up… so here’s what this “baby food diet” is all about. Developed by personal trainer Tracy Anderson it is meant as a health detox diet plan. Most detoxes have you lose weight quickly but then gain it all back in a week… her thoughts are that eating pureed foods will keep your digestive track going strong so you’re still detoxing with liquids but your body is running the way is should.
Here are a few pros and cons of the diet:
PROS:
No additives, no preservatives or added chemicals
All the cool Hollywood girls are doing it
Portions are small enough to help control cravings and make you feel like you’re eating rather than just drinking like most detoxifications
Lots of varieties
CONS
Small portions, probably lead you to binge eat later on
It’s baby food! Even doing the airplane with it doesn’t make it look any better.
Taste is bland, no spices, added flavors
What’s your opinion? Will you be sitting down for lunch next week and pull out a jar of pureed green beans?
