Are you kidding me?

Any diet that recommends hot dogs and ice cream every night doesn’t seem very scientific to me. This is just another fad diet that can cause weight loss due to low calories.

The problem is that any weight you lose during these three days will be regained once you resume your normal diet. As you may have experienced, that is the case with all crash diets.

If you want lasting weight loss, you should ditch the Birmingham 3-Day Cardiac Diet for patients scheduled for surgery.
