We don’t DO diets…
But if we had to this is what we would get you to do…
This “diet” (ugh i hate that word) is called a boot camp protocol.
I don’t like to use the word “diet” because that perceives a very short term mindset, but this protocol is designed to be used for a short period of time, and can have weight loss of about 15lbs!
In this video, you will learn:
- A boot camp protocol that will have you losing 15 pounds in a month
- Limit what you’re eating to things that swim, fly or grow for 14 days
- It isn’t a low carb diet because green vegetables contain carbohydrates
- Make sure you have enough fibre and that you’re alkalizing your body
- This nutrition isn’t for people with kidney issues
- It is a good kick-starter to get you into the habits quickly and effectively

Mark: Hi! This is Mark and Steve from TheDVCC.com, the place to be to lose fat and increase muscle tone. Today, Stephen’s going to give you a diet, which we don’t normally prescribe, but a diet that’s going to have you losing 15 pounds in about a month.
Stephen: So this diet is called a – well, it’s a boot camp protocol. I don’t like to use the word “diet” because that perceives a very short term mindset, but actually with this protocol, it is a bit of a short term thing to actually really make a really big start to losing fat. So what you’re going to do is you’re going to set aside 14 days where you’re going to limit what you’re eating to purely things that swim, fly or grow. So what we’re looking at is good quality meats, fish, lots and lots of green vegetables.
Mark: Lots of green vegetables.
Stephen: Lots of green vegetables and some nuts. What this will do, it will reset your insulin sensitivity. You’re going to lose a lot of fat. Now, a lot of people think that straight away, oh, it’s a high protein – low carb diet. Not actually true because vegetables contain carbohydrate. And that’s one thing that people don’t quite realize, that there’s a lot of carbohydrate if you’re eating enough green vegetables, but they’re just very fibrous. So, the only source of carbs that everyone’s used to tends to be white potatoes, white rice, white pasta and things like that. So, just because you cut them out doesn’t mean you’re going low carb.
Mark: I’ll just reiterate that point, Stephen, because a lot of people, when they discuss or they say what they’re doing, they’ll say, “I’m on a no carb diet,” like Stephen said, or a low carb diet. And like he said, that’s untrue. So it’s important that you tell people if you’re going to tell them that you realize you’re having lots of green vegetables. And therefore, you’re having very good, usable carbohydrates. So in fact, you’re actually not going that low carb.
Stephen: And that’s the key, is the only time this protocol is not effective is if you’re not eating enough in the way of green vegetables. Number one, to make sure that you’re having enough fibre. But number two, to also make sure that you’re alkalizing your body so that you are – because when you’re eating protein such as meat and fish, that is acid in your body. So it’s very important that you counteract that with a lot of green vegetables. And that will really obviously keep a right amount of fibre in your body so that things are regular, but also will keep you nice and balanced with your acid and alkaline base.
Mark: Now, it’s important, just to quickly reiterate, if you’ve got kidney problems or you have kidney issues, then this type of nutrition isn’t for you. You should be in conversation with your doctor or your nutritionist. But for the large majority of people who don’t have those kind of issues, this is a good protocol to use.
Stephen: Now, what you’re going to find, it is quite tough, but once you get into after the first three or four days, that you’ll actually find that you’ve got a lot more energy and you’re actually able – the sugar cravings that you probably normally get actually aren’t there anymore.
What you’re going to also do on Day 15, so after 14 days, is you’re going to give yourself a cheat meal. So you’re going to be able to eat whatever you want to eat. Now, I’m going to warn you, if you go a bit crazy on this, you’re going to feel awful the next day because what you’ll tend to do is have all the things that you’ve cut out such as wheat, dairy, gluten and that sort of stuff, and you’re going to find that they have much more of an impact on you if you are intolerant to those foods. So it’s actually a good way of seeing if you’re intolerant to those sorts of foods anyway.
Mark: So just to reiterate what they are going to be eating, lots of fish, good quality meats and lots of green greens. And that’s what you’re going to be having for the 14 days. You can obviously have olive oil and coconut oil and good fats like that. It is relatively restrictive, but like we say, it’s a boot camp protocol. It is specific 14 days. But like we say, we’ve had actually just recently, just last week, a lady losing 15 pounds in a month because she did 15 days. And then, she did the same thing, but every fifth day she would have a bit of a cheat meal in the evening.
Stephen: And now, she’s transitioned into a more applicable longer term way of eating. So don’t think that you’d do this for the rest of your life, but lots of people like it as a real…
Mark: In terms of being a kick-starter.
Stephen: A kick-starter.
Mark: And it gets you into the habits quickly and effectively. And we do it maybe twice, three times a year, and all of the trainers at the centre do it. You do feel a sense of achievement once you’ve done it and you do feel so much better after that first 14 days.
