There are great differences in where and why men and women get fat and yet most diet plans are directed at women. The Gut Buster is especially for men with a very specific weight problem - the pot belly or beer gut. As well as being unsexy, a paunch can cause problems ranging from heart disease, diabetes, arthritis and cancer, to back pain, snoring and sore knees. The Gut Buster contains some unusual advice about how to get rid of a pot gut, such as: throwing away your scales; using blankets instead of doonas or an electric blanket; punching holes in the insteps of your shoes; eating more spicy foods but without MSG; eating more often, rather than less often; drinking alcohol if you like - but balancing it with trade-offs ; forgetting about sit-ups; never missing breakfast; eating more bread; and not doing any exercise you don't like.
