    Very good question I ask myself all the time. Well for me I kept cheeting and eating unhealthy things. I wasn't taking it seriously. I would start loosing the weight then think its OK to cheet, then once I did I figured oh well let me just eat bad for the rest of the day. Then it became hard to start again. I just had a baby and of course there is extra weight that i need to lose and I said to myself that this time it not a diet its a lifestyle change

    See, to me one of the biggest scams the diet industry pulls is to convince you that when you 'fail' at a diet, it's because you didn't do it right, you cheated, whatever - rather than admitting that it's the diet that is flawed. You don't need Dr Poon, Dr Oz, Dr Hyam, clean eating, rules, restrictions... you need a calorie deficit and a way of eating that you can live with for life. A 'treat' isn't cheating. It isn't unhealthy. It's a part of life and can be fitted into a very healthy, sustainable, weight losing intake.

    No counting calories?
    So the Poon diet is all you can eat? Sounds good to me.

    How long 'till this get's dirty, and the thread gets closed?

    I’m not going there! I watch Bait Car on tv, “just keep walking!”

    I think most diets are the same, they restrict your calories in one form or another, or get you on an exercise program.
    The difference is whether you want to pay for the information or not. On MFP you get the information free.

    Poon diet? This is the first time I've heard of it……….

    I quickly checked out the website and was immediately drawn to the comment "Dr. Poon's blah blah blah is about what to eat rather than how much to eat."

    You see, this type of thinking is incorrect. Weight loss comes from a calorie deficit. How much you eat is what you need to focus on for weight loss. In terms of health, you would want to focus on what you eat (while still eating in a deficit).

    I agree that if it's your 3rd go around and you've 'cheated' before, why not try something more sustainable like eating your normal foods within your calorie goal?

    Hmm. The last poon shenanigans were very well received, as I recall.

    This discussion has been closed. This is the motivation and support forum, not chit-chat. Yes, some 'diets' and people have names that make us chuckle, but that is no reason to turn someone's "help me" discussion into a gif-fest. We were all new to the community once, and every last one of us learned something from them. Let me remind you of this little thing:

    2. No Hi-Jacking, Trolling, or Flame-baiting

    Please stay on-topic in an existing thread, and post new threads in the appropriate forum. Taking a thread off-topic is considered hi-jacking. Please either contribute politely and constructively to a topic, or move on without posting. This includes posts that encourage the drama in a topic to escalate, or posts intended to incite an uproar from the community.
