Hi Taylor

Yes you are very much correct because we have become an instant society everyone wants to lose all the weight today without any effort or even changing their diet. This approach is simply not going to work in the long run and what you will find is even though you lose the weight it simply returns in a few weeks or months time depending on the length of the diet program.

Dieting is about making healthy choices and lifestyle changes.

Fad diets is very harmful for the body as we skip our meal just to avoid the consumption of more calory intake then the calory burned.

Claiming to help you lose weight very quickly (more than 1 or 2 pounds per week). Remember, it took time to gain unwanted weight and it will take time to lose it.
Promising you can lose weight and keep it off without giving up “fatty” foods or exercising on a regular basis. If a diet plan or product sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Basing claims on “before and after” photos.
Offering testimonials from clients or “experts” in weight loss, science, or nutrition. Remember these people are probably being paid to advertise the diet plan or product.
Drawing simple conclusions from complex medical research.
Limiting your food choices and not encouraging you about balanced nutrition by eating a variety of foods.
Requiring you to spend a lot of money on things like seminars, pills, or prepackaged meals in order for their plan to work.

REMEMBER THIS:

I have to agree with Keeley that these diets often do more harm than good. People don’t realise how dangerous some of the regimes can be, and end up severely compromising their health just to lose a few pounds.

It really doesn’t seem worth it particularly as these diets are generally unsustainable in the long term. By drastically reducing your calorie intake, you only slow the body’s metabolism, resulting in weight gain when a normal eating pattern is resumed. As Michael says, the only real option to lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way is by eating simple, healthy food and taking exercise.

It should be much more about making a lifestyle change than making drastic alterations that can’t be maintained. The simple proviso of moving more and eating more healthily should be more widely adhered to- it removes a lot of the supposed complexity of weight loss!

While we continue to run away from the basics of good health through fad diets, the reality is always going to be the same. But because society is now so quick fix minded, fad diets will continue to be big business and people will continue to waste their money on them.

Yes these fad diets seem to become a mad craze, nobody does any research about the diet to see if there are any ill effects and everybody jumps in because they know someone else who is doing it.

Fad diets are absolutely ridiculous and they can be really really harmful on the body. You shouldn’t try messing with the natural rules of weight gain/loss. Exercize, eat better and you will lose weight. Maybe it won’t be over such a small period of time, but at least your body won’t suffer because of it.
