Reader's Digest Diet: Lose the Weight in 3 Weeks

When it comes to dieting, some people have tried virtually everything.

There's the grapefruit diet. The all-green, leafy diet. And who can forget the baby food fad diet?

Now, Reader's Digest magazine is introducing its own weight-loss plan, detailed in the book "The Digest Diet."

Liz Vaccariello, editor-in-chief of the magazine, said Reader's Digest incorporated the best weight-loss research into one simple plan that is split into three one-week phases.

"Well, it's not a fad, you're not eliminating food groups and it's the nexus of healthy weight loss and super-fast weight loss," Vaccariello told "Good Morning America" correspondent Abbie Boudreau in an interview that aired on the show today.

Phase one targets hard-to-battle belly fat. Dieters eat mostly soups and shakes, incorporating fat-releasing foods such as strawberries, yogurt and chocolate.

"So strawberries, here we're talking about vitamin C," Vaccariello said. "This is one of the fat releasers. You think of vitamin C as an immune booster but, in reality, people who have low levels of vitamin C in their body have a more difficult time losing weight."

Red wine, too, is good for weight loss, and milk chocolate and dark chocolate improve mood and help keep skin looking good, she added.

Being able to have these foods is a great benefit.
