    Basically, going on any nonsensical diet that promises to help you SEEM fitter, but it doesn't work, and (usually) will ultimately make you sick. For example, most "juice fasts" or " cleanses" promise fast results but sound revolting because they involve consumption of odd stuff, and ultimately let you keep a maximum of 700 cals available at a given time, which can hurt you unless undertaken with very close connection to a doctor. I'm by no means an expert, but I hope that helps.

    Short term fad diets that have no practical long term solutions. Highly restrictive for a short period of time which inevitably lead you to a binge cycle, because it's not sustainable in the least bit.

    I think it's when I go to Hometown Buffet and crash through the wall to skip the long wait at the door.

    It's basically any diet that is only temporary, and honestly a bit stupid. :/

    All of the above. Quick results that only last until you eat a normal meal. Long lasting results can only come from hard work and keeping your eye on the prize of healthy nutrition and better overall fitness.
