    Ugh this is all I hear at my office. And then they're all like "I lost 13 pounds in 4 days...so...yeah..." doh....

    I have a friend that is like this, Anything that doesn't include eating well she will try..Skinny me tea was the last one. Basically taking a butt load of laxatives daily..how can that be good for you!

    thats called crapping out all your weight...garbage in, garbage out right? LOL

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    As a "diet" technically refers to what you actually eat, it can apply to any eating patterns advocated for on this site. So, we are all on diets of one variety or another. However, the fad "Diets" that you are referring to, I will agree, are idiotic. Losing weight at its core is very simple: "Eat less (or better, as I prefer to phrase it) and move more!" Problem solved. :bigsmile:

    oh no you don't even go there trying to inject logic into this conversation ...calories in, calories out pffffff please....the only way to lose weight is juggle raspberry ketones over a pit of poisonous snakes for 12 hours, and then blend the ketones with the snake venom and drink for seven days straight..everyone knows that ...

    People are stupid and lazy. These quick fix deals appeal to them. As long as there are idiots, there will be people trying to take their money.

    That's why I spend all of my money on video games! That'll teach those greedy diet-fad shills from trying to steal my monies!

    ...It's better to give it to the likes of EA, the worst company in the world.

    Lol here here now goes to play skyrim

    Speaking of Skyrim, Elder Scrolls Online needs to hurry the heck up. I need to give them my money.

    I heard that if you only eat what other people buy it's like eating zero calories, because you didn't spend your money on it.
    That's what my college roommate did, and she was really skinny. I got fat, because she was eating calories bought with my money, so it was like I was eating them.

    Actually .... I would quite like to see what you'll do when you explode. So hopefully, there'll be a few more fad diet threads today *hehehehehe*

    But seriously, I'm with you - and I'm by no means an expert. But it's clear that none of those fashion diets or magic pills really work long-time, or else we wouldn't be having an obesity crisis the world over.

    I don't know about everyone else, but I've been there. On every diet.

    A "diet" is simply a way of eating. Most of us weren't brought up on a great "diet" (I grew up eating Twinkies, French fries and pork chops.) Most of us weren't taught how to plan meals, shop, cook.

    In countries where food and eating well are big parts of the national culture..and big points of pride (France, e.g.), you don't see our levels of obesity.

    It's fun to bash people for their stupidity, but I'm sure that all of us have done something as stupid as the cabbage diet or whatever the diet might be...even if it isn't a diet. We didn't know, we took a leap, we wasted some time and some money (probably) but we learned something.

    I know its crazy. But there are a LOT of people, like myself, who used to think diets were the way to go. Eventually, we all have that light bulb moment. :wink:

    The office I used to work in would go thru diet phases. The first one was putting a staple in your ear, then it was that cayenne water, wraps, special vitamins, low carb, no carb, south beach.....it was exhausting. Everyone wants a quick fix...umm who doesn't but that's not how it works. I don't know how many times people asked me how I was losing weight, when I said diet and exercise they looked puzzled.

    Have a friend on FB trying to convince me that "cabbage diet" is a miracle worker and is the way to go. I tried to politely tell her that isn't the case and send her this way but she has went to the dark side :/
