Try the Biggest Loser 4-3-2-1 Food Pyramid

There's more than one food pyramid out there. While the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) spends gazillions to advocate their MyPyramid, The Biggest Loser reality show touts their own -- the 4-3-2-1 Food Pyramid.

Weight loss and nutrition adviser for The Biggest Loser, Dr. Michael Dansinger, reveals the skinny on the 4-3-2-1 daily countdown:

• At least four cups of fruits and vegetables
  
• Three eight-ounce servings of lean protein
  
• No more than two cups of whole grains
• One sweet treat (e.g., diet pudding)
  
  

Add regular exercise to the 4-3-2-1 formula and you're bound to shed pounds. I regularly stick to the 4-3 part, but on those bad food days, my pyramid has a big 4-3-6-3 bulge -- not good. Is your pyramid top-heavy too often?
