About the Cookies

• Dr. Seigal's cookies come in five flavors: oatmeal raisin, blueberry, banana, chocolate and coconut. They all contain eggs, milk, soy, wheat and non-vegetable proteins. Unlike other diet foods and pills, these protein cookies contain no drugs. The cookies work as a natural appetite suppressant, which is possible thanks to a special mixture of nutrients, vitamins and minerals that has been worked on for years. Each cookie is high in fiber and protein and has 10g of carbohydrates.
  
  

How It Works

• To follow the diet, only eat one meal each day--dinner--while consuminf six cookies throughout the rest of the day as meal replacements. For dinner, Dr. Seigal suggests you have 6 oz. of seafood, fish, chicken or turkey, with 1 cup of vegetables. Dieters are allowed to drink water, coffee and special sugar-, carbohydrate- and calorie-free tea along with their meals. In total, dieters consume between 1,100 to 1,200 calories each day. Since you're eating less and replacing large meals with small cookies, you end up losing a lot of weight.
  
  

What to Expect

• Before you can even start the diet, potential dieters are advised to undergo a health screening (which costs about $200) to make sure the diet is right for them. Most dieters lose around 15 lbs. per month with the cookies, which may be unhealthy for some, according to Chooseyourdiet.com. The protein cookie diet certainly promotes weight loss, but not body fat loss, so weight can be put back on easily after ending the diet. The diet should not be a permanent diet, just one to follow if you desire to lose a lot of weight fast. Along with the cookies, dieters can choose to consume Dr. Seigal's shakes and nutritional supplements that also suppress appetite.
