About this ebook
The diet that works faster and forever!
SUPER SHRED
Using the same principles—meal spacing, snacking, meal replacement and diet confusion—that made his SHRED a major #1 bestseller—Dr. Ian K. Smith has developed what dieters told him they needed: a quick-acting plan that is safe and easy to follow at home, at work, or on the road.
SUPER SHRED
It's a program with four week-long cycles:
--Foundation, when you'll eat four meals and three snacks a day, start shedding pounds and set yourself up for success
--Accelerate, when you'll kick it up and speed up weight loss
--Shape, the toughest week in the program, and the one that will get your body back by keeping it guessing
--Tenacious, a final sprint that cements your improved eating habits and melts off those last stubborn pounds
The SHRED system never leaves you hungry. It's a completely new way to lose weight, stay slender, and feel fantastic about your body, mind and spirit!
Includes more than 50 all-new recipes for meal replacing smoothies and soups!

[CHAPTER 1]
The SUPER SHRED Concept
For many years I have been asked by tens of thousands of people, How can I lose weight quickly?
For as long as I can remember, my answer was consistent. Losing weight too quickly can be dangerous. It’s best to lose it slow and steady so that you can keep it off longer.
Given the relevant science, I always accepted the conventional wisdom of steady weight loss being more beneficial than rapid weight-loss strategies. But I still wanted to explore whether it was actually possible to lose weight quickly and in a safe manner. I finally concluded that the answer is yes, but only after taking a step back to first understand why weight-loss experts continuously caution against the rapid weight-loss approach.
Programs that have promised fast weight loss have for the most part been extreme and unhealthy. They propose either a severe restriction in calories; unregulated, non-FDA-approved supplements to help boost the metabolism; or eating plans that call for eliminating entire food categories. These programs have been successful for many, but the harm they can potentially do to the body can outweigh the potential benefits that one achieves with the weight loss. What good is losing 15 pounds quickly if it means you are damaging your kidneys? What good is losing 20 pounds if it means you are going to gain it all back and then some in three weeks once you stop whatever plan it is that you’re following?
SUPER SHRED is specifically designed to be a short-term rapid-weight-loss plan. It is not meant for the long term. Instead, it is what I call destination dieting. You have a cruise to get ready for in two months? You have a reunion to attend in six weeks? You need to look your best at a wedding in four weeks? SUPER SHRED is your secret weapon to help deliver the results you want. But remember, secret weapons are best used only when the stakes are high. You have plenty of other weapons in your arsenal, but when you really need to deliver that knockout blow, then you call on your secret weapon. The element of surprise that is so critical on the battlefield is also critical in the weight-loss battle. If you overuse the same weapon, your enemy knows what to expect and can defend against it better, and eventually the weapon becomes less effective. Overusing SUPER SHRED can have the same impact on the effectiveness of the plan, which is why you should use it in short bursts.
The original plan, outlined in SHRED: The Revolutionary Diet, is meant to be the plan you can follow for the long term. It’s a practical, inexpensive, straightforward program that delivers amazing results. In six weeks, the average person loses 4 inches and two sizes. People who have followed the original SHRED plan have mixed it up with SUPER SHRED to give themselves a boost. The results have been amazing, with the average weight loss each week being just over 5 pounds.
SUPER SHRED is a four-week program that is constructed in a way that will deliver the best results. There is flexibility built into the plan, but it’s important to do your best to follow it as written. Our time to deliver is short, so that means there’s little time to deviate and recover. This makes every day important, and it makes it necessary for you to plan, prepare, and execute as efficiently as possible. If you’re going to do SUPER SHRED, make sure you have time to do it and that you’re not trying to do it when you’re distracted or not in control of your food environment. For best results, follow the program when you can give it all of the mental and physical attention it deserves and
