Review of The Ultimate New York Body Plan

The author of this diet is already quite well known thanks to the ABC series, Extreme Makeover. David Hirsch has quite a reputation as being the go-to guy when you want to lose weight and celebrities swear by his plans. This online book/site received its fare share of hype and However, is it worth the cost to try it on on your own? Let's find out.

Right off the bat, this is a diet that will help people see results in just about two weeks, and unlike many other diet plans, it focuses on lifestyle changes as well as losing weight. This is the first sign that you're dealing with a diet that's going to work, not just now, not just in two weeks, but for the rest of your life. For those of us that want to lose weight and keep it off, this resource is packed with incredible advice amidst all of the inspirational talk.

The main concern we had with this plan was that in order to take advantage of it, you've got to join an online program for $16 and you'll also need to buy some shakes, which can be pretty expensive. For those dieters that do not have a lot of money, this really isn't a plan that they could get much use out of. Unfortunately, the whole idea of having to pay a monthly membership fee for a diet is a little too much to take, and cheapens what is otherwise a very good plan.

However, you can still walk away with enough advice to make these changes on your own, and stick with a new diet plan, without having to shell out money for shakes or memberships. Possibly the best part of the plan is that it contains a fitness test to help you gauge your progress as you start the diet. This is a terrific addition that not many diet books or plans have and it compensated for the points that we didn't like. You can easily use this test to make sure that you're not only losing weight but getting healthier too.

Exercise plans are given that can help you get on the path to total wellness and that was greatly appreciated. The bad thing is that you do have to pay to access them. We would have liked to see a few more free resources available for those who simply cannot afford to take advantage of this program. There is so much good advice here that it needs a wider audience and while this may not be economically smart, it would have been nice.

Overall, we recommend the Ultimate New York Diet simply because it contains so much useful advice, plans and information. It is a recommendation with reservations however, given that there is a monthly fee and the shakes are pretty costly. With a few modifications, we could really get behind this one, and that's not praise that is handed out lightly.
