As the title says... just list off your diet and what is entailed in it. I will go first, these are two I found just looking around on the yahoo
Lost 20 pounds in 4 days by..............

I made a bowl of oatmeal, you can add raisins, peaches, or strawberries if you must, and milk is ok too. But make one bowl size of oatmeal about two servings within one bowl.

Breakfast take some oatmeal out of that bowl, and eat it.

Lunch, take some oatmeal out of that bowl and eat it.

Snack can be a piece of fruit or a half of can of fruit, or something that is about 150 calories or less.

Dinner- eat whats left in that bowl from earlier.


After homework, or phone talk, jump rope - Do a total of 200 jumps........doesn't matter if you mess up on 5 counts just keep going!

Do 40 crunches

A total of 50 jumping jacks

No soda or diet soda only tea allowed!

Jog in place for 10 min Straight and if you fail try again!

march with your knees high for just 15 min.



This is hard...........but if your serious do it, but if you feel overworked...THEN QUIT! lol I did this only for four days!






If you want a easier way to lose weight with out exercising, but you will lose 1-2 pounds no matter what a day...........I swear by this!!!

Breakfast: Oatmeal fix it how you would always, and a egg.......the egg is a must also...really.

Lunch- Tuna with mustard

Dinner- Mustard with tuna

You can have up to five tuna cans a day.


You will lose 1-2 pounds daily..............but its hard to stick to when you want to eat other stuff.*This diet came from a Harverd study on weight loss.

    My daughter was doing the HGC diet. I begged her to get off it, it's scared me to death.

    She's doing MFP now and having great success and it's much, MUCH more healthy.

    Grapefruit diet.

    As if a grapefruit has magical weight loss properties, soo stupid. Also high in protein/cholesterol.

    The Cottonball Diet

    Who would think of such a thing??? Eating a non-food item that is minimal in calories, to fill up on, so you don't overeat real food.
