Grapefruit Diet?

I have done a couple of things that have not been succesfull like Herbalife, Calories down to 1200. This time, i want to try the Grapefruit Diet. Any suggestions?>

My suggestion is to stop reaching for fad diets and gimmicks and start learning about nutrition basics. This is intended as genuine advice and not an insult, just FYI.

^^^^^^ Seconded!

Start logging everything you eat. Get your fat, carbohydrates, and proteins in balance. Plan your food. Exercise to burn off calories. Drink plenty of water. Eat fewer calories than you burn (but not TOO MUCH fewer).

Then just keep that up until you lose weight, increase your calories to maintenance levels, and simply keep that up FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. Simple.

Here's what works. A moderate calorie deficit mostly consisting of nutritious foods like lean meats and vegetables. Exercise, but fuel your body.

Educate yourself about nutrition and you'll never fall for a fad diet again. Here is a link to the Unofficial MFP FAQ built by experienced and successful MFP members. Start with the Table of Contents to easily find the nutrition related topics.

Try hard work. Stop being lazy about losing weight.

It doesn't even take hard work, just eating sensibly.
