The first step of the 30 Day Miracle Program is for
the dieter to do the 24 or 48 Hour Diet. After this diet
is finished, and the dieter returns to eating solid foods,
the second step is to replace one meal per day with
another Hollywood Product, the Hollywood Daily
Miracle Diet Drink Mix Meal Replacement. It is sug-
gested that the dieter replace dinner for the most suc-
cessful outcome. The dieter is also encouraged to
avoid foods that are high in fat or salt, that contain
sugar, and to avoid dairy products, red meat, and diet
sodas.
The diet also recommends that the dieter take
another Hollywood product, Hollywood Meta
Miracle, twice each day. This product is supposed to
be able to help dieters not feel hungry, boost their
metabolism, and give them more energy. The other
supplement recommended by the diet is the Holly-
wood Mega Miracle 75 nutritional supplement. The
diet instruct that it be taken twice every day. This
product supposedly contains 75 different nutrients
needed by the body for good health.
The diet also suggests that dieters eat a healthy
breakfast and lunch, do not eat after six pm each day,
and eat fruits and vegetables as snacks. The diet rec-
ommends that a dieter take a brisk walk for 30 minutes
or more each day. The final instruction of the diet is to
repeat either the Hollywood 48 Hour Diet or the Hol-
lywood 24 Hour diet on a regular basis. Once a month
or each weekend are suggested.
Function
Hollywood 48 Hour Miracle Diet and Hollywood
24 Hour Miracle Diet are intended to produce large
amounts of weight loss in very short times. The 48
hour diet claims that dieters can lose up to 10 pounds
in just two days. The 24 hour diet claims that dieters
can lose up to 5 pounds in just one day. These diets
suggest that they be repeated often until the desired
weight loss has been achieved. These diets also claim
that they will detoxify the body and rejuvenate the
dieter. The 30 Day Miracle Diet is intended to provide
more long term weight loss over a period of one moth.

during that time period is not specified.

intended to be lifestyle changing diets. They do not
provide recommendations for exercise, and they do

lifestyle support, such as stress reduction techniques.

Hour products, but is intended to be a lifestyle pro-
gram for more long term weight loss. It does provide
healthy eating and exercise recommendations for the
dieter to follow during the course of the diet.
