Blood type diets are a waste of time - eat what you like.20

Are bacon and egg "allowed" ?1
-
Or just eat in a deficit?5
-
Sounds silly. Blood types don't determine dietary needs.8

This.
As long as you're in a deficit, you'll lose weight, no matter your blood type.1 -

Blood type diet is BS. Eat according to your taste instead.5
-
Is this even a thing? Just curious, why would your blood type effect what you eat?2

Unless you're on a weight loss plan that involves getting all your nutrition via blood transfusions, your blood type is irrelevant to dieting.7

Just eat foods you like - but modify portions
A "blood type diet" restricts food choices. That's how they "work." Any type of diet that TEMPORARILY restricts what you eat will help you lose weight.
The problem with that is losing weight is just the first step. You have years (and years) ahead of you for maintaining the weight you lost....that's lifestyle changes not temporary ones.

Eat the food you like that fits your calorie goal and you will lose weight. You do not need a special diet because of your blood type.0

You might as well start eating according to your eye colour or shoe size or according to the weather

I am blood type O as well. I looked that diet up once just to see how I ate compared to it. If I remember correctly I ate pretty close to what it said. Not that I would ever follow such a ridiculous diet. Eat what you like at a deficit and you will lose weight.0

Well the "Doctor" that came up with this diet is a naturopath with a black belt, according to his CV so that's good enough for me. BRB, off to get my blood typed.3

In the vein of everyone else telling you blood type dieting is ridiculous let me just add this -- I am type O and I have been eating bulgur, mung beans and lentils for lunch every day for the past year. I also have had cereal (with yoghurt) as a dessert pretty much every day as well. Now, according to that diet, over 50% of what I consume daily falls into the "limited" or "avoid" categories and yet I have lost over 50lbs
So... Yeah... Just something to think about6 -

I'll third this. It's a gimmicky diet based on peoples desires to get thin fast. Eat at a calorie deficit.0 -

For weight loss, all you need is a calorie deficit.1 -

The Blood type 'diet' was never intended as a diet for weight loss. It seems as though nobody here has read the theory behind the diet, which is that our ancestors ate a certain way, and that it's based on evolution and blood type. Type O is the oldest blood type, so their choices are meat-based, hunter-gatherer style. Blood type B happened as people started settling into communities and raising food, so grain is okay, etc. Peter D'Adamo, who studied blood types and diets, makes a strong case for it in his book. BUT the main focus is better health. It's an interesting study.
You can get stuck in the weeds with the small stuff, but I know my allergies are better if I follow the O diet basics, no wheat and no dairy are the two big things. But KETO says the same thing - along with other diets.
I agree with most of the people here, calorie deficit and activity are the best roads to weight loss. Just don't trash something without having an understanding of it.

I'm O Positive and I positively eat the foods I love.
Where did you hear about a blood type diet? Didn't you think it sounded absurd?2 -

I'll never understand all these strange fad type diets? Why make it so restricting and complicated? just eat healthy and balanced diet at a deficit and YOU WILL lose weight. end of story6 -

Perhaps you should catch up a bit. After this nonsense was written it was discovered that we've been eating grains a whole lot longer than we thought.

I’m O+ and I’m a vegetarian because I just don’t like meat. Taste, texture, smell. Never have. So basically I’m to live on fresh air! Cheap but unsustainable I think...
My hair is blonde though, and my eyes are green. So I think I’ll be ok on grains and vegetables. Glad my eyes aren’t blue...I’d have to live off blueberries! 😉7 -

If your allergies are better without wheat or dairy that is because you have an intolerance to wheat and dairy - it is completely coincidental and irelevant to your blood type.
people arent trashing something because they have no understanding of it - they are saying something is non factual and non scientific and has no basis in reality- well, because it is non factual and non scientific and has no basis in reality
