Here is something fun... Below is a link to a site that lists a complete list of diets past-present, A through Z. Some of the are strange to say the least!

I always find the setups of these lists interesting; for one which diets are included (I couldn't find the 21 Day Fix, Bright Line Eating, The Hacker's Diet or Intuitive Eating, but the Diet Fix and the No S Diet is there; Myfitnesspal is missing, but Sparkpeople is there), and especially what counts as pros and cons (calorie counting and slow weightloss are cons, whereas snacking, meal plans and recipes are pros).

I read one of the links which included a sales pitch for how to lose 2.5 stone in 2 weeks

Unless it includes lipo or removal of a limb it aint happening

Hacker Diet comes down to CICO, like every diet that actually works. (It gave me some much-needed structure starting out, though I no longer use all the tools).

Yeah... I find it really interesting too! I feel like no matter how or where they start out, all of them ultimately end in CICO! I don't like the ones that send you all of your meals... perfectly portioned and all that and claim that you can lose like 20 LBs in two weeks! I don't know if those are even on the list. I mean sure if it works for someone that's cool but are they actually learning anything? I don't know... it's fun to look through them and read all the different methods, ideas, pro/cons, etc...
