This blog entry is based on my personal addiction to the show 24. I've devised a round-the-clock, diet plan that will rev your metabolism, nourish your insides and enhance your energy. And here's the best part -- you don't have to sweat through an entire season, in fact it will only take one full day to jumpstart your body into great shape.
