Most recommended diet plan?

Options
Hi! So I know there are so many main stream diet plans to help with weight loss goals, so are there any recommendations at which ones help or are good. I don't want to say "the best" because not all diet plans work with everyone and I know they require a lot from the person, i.e... dedication, exercise, and support. So does anyone have any recommendations? I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you!

    A moderate calorie deficit - eat "healthy, nutritious" foods most of the time. Allow treats as they fit your calorie and macro goals.

    That's all it takes :wink:

    Ditto.

    If that seems really daunting, then there's the "take one small step at a time" plan. That means that you make your healthy changes one at a time, waiting until one change becomes habit before introducing a second one, instead of all at once.

    1) Set caloric goal.
    2) Eat within said goal.
    3) Exercise.
    4) Measure results.
    5) Adjust as necessary.
    6) Go back to step #1.

    The best plan is the one you can stick to. To me that means moderation, not restricting any specific food group, and a moderate deficit.

    Moderation. Exercise. Lots of fruits and veggies, less food from a box?

    The best plan is not to diet but change your lifestyle. Teach yourself to make better choices and about portion control. Exercise and figure out what works for you.

    The one thats not a diet, based on returning to common sense and fueling your workouts.

    And find out how much you are eating before you decide to eat less. You may not lose weight cause you aren't eating enough. I couldn't lose for 5 months cause I kept eating less and working out more. Turns out eating 1200 calories don't mix well will burning 3-5000 calories a week.

    Are you being ironic? Your on a calorie counting website asking about the best diet plan. Seriously?

    Thank you everyone for you responses!

    I was not being ironic. I know this is a calorie counting website but my food discipline is way lacking and that is the hardest part for me. I was asking, I guess If there was any form of structure or plan that helped with jump starting and also gave me a baseline or ideas to start. Something that was very disciplined for someone who isn't as nutritionally savvy.

    Thanks again everyone for your input.
