Anyone ever try a fad diet before?

I have done Herbal Life and Dr. Bernstein...WW and Body for Life.
I did enjoy Body for Life, I was able to eat and workout it was all balanced. It was just so much work. Ya I am a lazy slug. But I know whats good for me and will be going back to doing the same workouts.0 -
Sure. Slimfast, Atikins, 6 Week Body Makeover & WW. Never fell in for the pills though & the Slimfast lasted a short time as the drinks were too chalky for me (this was at least 20 years ago) I had lost 30 lbs with the 6 Week one & an additional 30 with WW that same year (2006), but I plateued & gained it all back.0

There was one years ago that consisted of eating what was essentially a piece of fudge before meals. The idea was that having some glucose before a meal would make you eat less. Of course you had to buy the "special" fudge. I don't know why I tried it as I didn't need to lose weight anyway. It was just fashionable to diet at the time.0

I've tried the 30 bananas a day diet. It was way too much raw food to start and I didn't digest most of it. I do eat more fruit every day because of it but I've gone back to a normal diet with lean proteins and vegetables.0

I've done heaps- weight watchers, celebrity slim, 8 hour diet, Atkins, paleo, tried being vegan just to lose weight, gluten free just to lose weight, naturally thin, carbohydrate attics diet and probably a lot more that I can't think of. The only ones that I lasted on long enough to get to goal weight were weight watchers and celebrity slim after weight watchers I got pregnant so needless to say I stopped it and celebrity slim got me down to my goal weight after baby but their maintenance plan is very vague and contradictory as in parts of their book it says to follow low carb but in suggested foods at the back of the book it is all low go. So that's how I ended up here trying to find a way to maintain my weight loss without having to follow a strict diet.0
