    Here is my opinion-
    fad diets are a fad-they come and they go

    Nutrisystem-food you can carry with you in your purse, car, backpack-hummm--portion control that is costing you over $300 a month. By a measuring cup and cook your own foods and control the preservatives and sodium. Educate yourself on food and portion size. Lots of infor here and on good ol' Google Make your own and carry it in an lunch box with an ice pack. (You know exactly what is in it)

    Phen Phen-people died from

    diet pills-my best friends mom is on disability from them. She wanted a quick fix and she did this for years. When she went off, she gained, so she went on again. Her whole system is jacked up for it.

    Ali-you eat and you mess your pants like a baby. No bowl control

    Carbohydrates are the main source of fuel that powers your body.
    Eating the right amount of carbohydrates can increase your energy
    level and improve you performance. Your muscles need carbohydrates
    to fuel your activity.
    Did you know? Eating carbohydrates after a workout speeds up your
    muscles recovery time. Plan to add special carbohydrate snacks after a
    workout to replace what you burned.
    Consuming carbohydrates after a workout will not only help you
    recover faster from that workout but it will increase your energy stores
    and may make you feel less tired and fatigued.
    So eat your carbs

    Adkins-some peoples cholesterol went way up.

    Lose 10 pounds in 10 days diet-you lost water and when you drink and eat, you gain it right back.

    If you want to lose 20 pounds fast-sign up for biggest loser and workout 6 hours a day and eat the right foods and have Bob and Jillian ride your *kitten*.


    realize that it may take a while to lose the weight...but, wouldn't you feel better knowing that you are improving your overall health?? I know I would
    Doing the fad thing.....sure you are loosing weight.......but........ask yourself this-Am I getting healthier by doing it this way? NOPE

    If losing weight was so easily and melted like butter, we would all be thin. Life isn't that easy. If it takes 3,4 months, it's ok. The safe way is the only way.

    Right on the money again banks. You have to make changes you can live with forever. Temporary diets don't work and they have a ratcheting effect to them. That means if you put the weight back on you'll likely reach a greater weight than before the weight loss. Slow and steady wins the race.

    bravo. I always stress each person is so different and their background is so different and their bodies. My poor brother (insert sarcasm) can't keep on his weight because of the training he doees and he eats over 5 thousand cals a day. I guess coming from a family who is very fit and genetically lean and muscular my metabolism is a bit different. Just eating a 2k diet I would drop drastically so I've made changes mostly in what I eat and not so much as cals and buming the excercise like crazy. Like banks:wink: said you have to exercise and even that what works for me probably isn't what will work for you. So you doctor is always the best starting point, I don't care if you are a size 2, then a nutritionist and then a fitness professional.
