Okay, I've heard of people being on a vegan diet, a Paleo diet, and then the classic high-protein, low-carb diet. What diet is best?

The best one is the one that YOU can stick with for life.

Which ever one you can eat for the rest of your life. Don't think of it as a 'Diet' or it won't work.0

QFT.
If you'll fail trying to give up meat, vegan is not the choice for you. If you'll fail trying to give up pasta, Paleo is not the choice for you. Personally, I just try to do everything in moderation and make about 80% of my food choices healthy ones. It's something I can stick to and live with.0 -

Agreed. Weight loss shouldn't be temporary, so neither should your eating habits. Eat in a way that you can see yourself eating for the rest of your life0 -
Hey! I've heard the low fat high carb vegan diet is very good. Check out the videos of 'durianrider' on youtube its really interesting
But I'm not really ready to make such a drastic change in my diet, so I start of slow by integrating more fruits and vegetables in my diet. I also recommend checking out 'Kimberly Snyder', she has a blog. Good luck finding what works for you.

Double Agree. I still eat everything I used to eat, just in much better moderation. If I were to cut something out entirely, I would eventually miss it, give up, and gorge myself on it.
One thing that I do view as temporary is my calorie deficit - I'm still eating at a 1,000 calorie deficit daily, and I look forward to the day when I'm at my goal weight, and can re-adjust to a higher calorie intake that will just sustain weight. But the changes I've made do need to be somewhat permanent - you can't ever go back 100% to the way you used to eat if you weren't happy with your weight under those conditions.0 -

Well looking at your ticker it looks like you are doing a wonderful job! I'm rooting for you to reach your goals!0 -
I'm a huge fan of the one where I can eat anything I want and as long as I'm in a calorie deficit, I lose weight. You know, sort of the default MFP setup. Pizza, McDonalds, ice cream and cookies seem to be working well for me.
Highly recommend0 -
I'm a vegan, but I do not consider it a fad. I have been vegan for 12 years though, so maybe I am somehow missing out on the fad part.0

Any sustainable diet that includes good nutrition.0

Highly recommend
and this is what's dangerous about MFP and IIFYM, because you left out the part where you should still be meeting your macro and micro nutritional goals with whole foods, and the junk should only be a small % of your overall intake.0 -
Your diet shouldn't be a fad, it should be a lifestyle. Remember a "diet" is just what you eat on a daily basis, not necessarily to gain/lose weight. Many people today incorrectly consider a "diet" to be synonymous with weight loss. They say "I'm going on a diet to lose weight". They have always been on a "diet", it's just now they are changing the contents of that "diet" to attain certain goals.0

Tapeworm + Liver Cleanse + Fast 23 hours a day & eat whatever you want for one hour = GOLD0

As others have stated...whatever is going to be sustainable for you long term.0

From a health perspective, you need lots of veggies. As long as you have healthy kidneys, you also need lots of protein. Everything else is negotiable.0 -

that's actually arguable, so... as to avoid the argument, lets say "do your own research and find something you think you can stick to indefinitely that will keep you happy and healthy"0
