Tricia Cunningham says she has gone from 292 to 125 in 9 months and kept it off for five years thus far.
Her secret: Eat Dinner for Breakfast and vice versa.
The real magic seems to be that she just started eating better and that she ate a large meal first and a small meal last.
So is it really that much a Backwards Diet if it’s just ~reversing the order of meal-sizes?
Her recent second place in a bikini contest makes it seem a bit too good to be true. In the past five years, she must have had some type of plastic surgery.
There was no mention of her specific daily or weekly eating plan. Equally neglected was any exercise program she might have undergone.
Hmm. Would people pay money to learn the specifics?… If she could come up with some before and after photos, I’m sure she’ll get a book published. She’s probably just finishing the manuscript.
So the Backwards Diet is chrono-nutriton from the old saying? Many sources say the jury’s still out…
Update: Apparently Tricia Cunningham, or one of her people, found us and put in a little backwards diet clarification below in the comments.

At the heart of The Reverse Diet is the old adage eat like a king for breakfast, a prince for lunch, and a pauper for dinner,
but Tricia Cunningham took it a step further: by eating dinner foods for breakfast and breakfast foods for dinner, she lost over
170 pounds and has maintained that weight-loss for over seven years.
Many overweight people eat only one meal a day–dinner–and by the time it rolls around, they’re starving and end up overeating. Even for those who eat three meals a day, dinner is typically their largest. Like a car going on a long journey, it doesn’t make much sense to fill up at the end of the day when you’ll store what you’ve taken in instead of burning it off.
If you’re overweight or have been, you know that it can cut into the quality of your life. You spend too much time thinking about food, feeling guilty about eating, and obsessing about what you look like. The Reverse Diet will show you how to recognize the unhealthy triggers and negative thoughts that cause yo-yo dieting and become emotional and motivational obstacles to weight loss.
For people who are tired of diets that restrict favorite foods or require complicated meal planning, the Reverse Diet is just what the doctor ordered—a program that’s easy to understand, easy to stick to, and remarkably effective at promoting weight loss for life. You’ll be on your way to a whole new world of possibilities–with no limitations.

Great clarification! +Thanks so much for chiming-in!
-But is it really necesary to refer to yourself in the 3rd-Person?…
…Unless you are not Tricia at-all, but secretly Jimmy from Seinfeld.
