No snacking is allowed during this time. For thsoe who want to lose more weight, the diet can be repeated over and over again until the desired results are achieved (-- removed HTML --) (-- removed HTML --) Four Days Off (-- removed HTML --) (-- removed HTML --) After completing the first three days of the diet, dieters are allowed four days off. This is where things can get confusing. While the diet does mention eating items such as hot dogs and ice cream, upon closer inspection you'll see that it's recommended that you continue eating low calorie meals. Therefore, it's not really a three day on, four day off diet, the four days off just allow followers to consume more calories.
