The diet that works.

Like my mom always said, "If you have to ask, you know the answer is going to be no." If you had to ask people's opinions, you know it's a bad idea. And this silly diet has been going around for years, and no one has ever figured out where Sacred Heart Memorial Hospital is.

NOOOOO!!!
The only diet you should ever follow is a balanced and healthy diet with exercise, burning more calories than you consume!!

No thanks, I'll stick with my eating lifestyle. Lots of veggies, berries (fruits mentioned have some of the highest sugar content) nuts, meats and lots and lots of healthy fats (avocado, olive, coconut, palm). Now this is something I can do for life.
good luck with it, though. You can't eat like that for life so as soon as you have to stop the "diet" your weight will go right back to where it was. That five pounds is most likely water.0 -
My scale oftentimes will show me a 3 lbs weight loss difference in the space of a single day, due to normal fluctuations. 5lbs in two days is hardly unreasonable, but I don't think the weight difference is actually due to loss of anything significant. Water loss is more likely.
What works better that a random diet that promises drastic weight loss like that is a change in lifestyle with gradual weight loss, because you can maintain that forever, not just for the duration of time you're on the diet.0 -

for me, one of the most gratifying take aways from counting calories to lose weight has been the almost "out of body" experience.
by that i mean, stepping outside of myself and really noticing not only how bad i was eating, BUT HOW MUCH.
i think you lose that with these quick/fad diets.0 -
I know a man who followed a similar diet to this, he lost weight very well, over 100 pounds and looked great but.... Even though he has been followed by a physician throughout the process, now that he is on "maintenance" and still being followed medically, he has gained more than half of the weight back! The problem with these diets is that they don't teach you how to eat properly, and your body doesn't seem to treat food the same after a period of time on them! I personally think it is better to just learn how to eat healthy, and exercise. Good luck!0

"The diet that works"?????
Oh dear. I can only assume you are young or new to weight loss. If this diet worked I would not have been overweight for 20 years (that's probably when I last tried this kind of thing....)
In my opinion "the diet that works" is a healthy eating plan and the attitude that it is for life, not for the short term. I can do the healthy eating, still working on the attitude!0 -

^^^^^^^ THIS! It can't be said enough. NO 'fad diet' is going to help permanently, only a lifestyle change will ...0 -
Is the soup still up for grabs? That soup sounds good to me....0

There's no way she could have gained 10 pounds of TRUE fat in one week, no matter how much she ate.
What really happened was she consumed too much sodium, and now her body is coming back to normal, releasing the water. That's the 5 lb loss.
^^THIS!!0 -
nope because once you stop the diet you will gain 3 times as much weight back.0
-
Unsustainable and unrealistic, so why bother. There are NO QUICK FIXES.0
-
That amount of loss in such a short time can't be good for you.
Also, I don't care for anything that tells me what to eat. I decide that for myself0 -
I don't like any diets that cut out any "healthy" food...fruits,veggies,ect..
Have you looked at the ingredients of the soup?
In my mind this is basically a "cleanse" you are still getting lots of veges - but losing out on most of your macro nutrients..... If you consider this type of thing I would not do it for more than 5-7 days and then jump right back on a healthy balanced eating plan.....0 -
Thanks everyone... these are the answers I was expecting - just needed to hear it.0

Are people getting paid to think up diets like this?0

I'm not sure... and I know it sounds crazy.
BUT I have seen it work right in front of my eyes (i.e. my co-worker)... so the proof was there (kind of) so I was curious to see what everyone thought.0
