The Skinny on Fad Diets

Hello Everyone!


Most of us have been, or are currently on some kind of fat loss diet. I get lots of questions from people on what is the best way to lose weight and cut fat.
Are you searching for a new diet to help you shed the pounds and incinerate the fat? Confused about which diet to try? I’ll help you sort through the popular fat loss diets and choose the one that’s right for you.


If there’s one thing that’s a constant in the world, it’s that diet fads will come and go. Back in the 30’s and 40’s the diet trend was smoking (seriously, smoking was thought to help you lose weight because you’d be puffing instead of eating!).


The 50’s fad was prayer. Ask God to be slim and maybe it would happen! The 60’s pushed support groups and oh, The Cabbage Soup Diet. Diet pills were all the rage in the 70’s; the Scarsdale Diet dominated the 80’s and was dethroned in the 90’s by Dr. Atkins, which still proves to be popular today.


So here we are in the second decade of the twenty-first century. At last count there were over 300 diets being used today, everything from the Glycemic Impact Diet to the Bistro MD Diet. Do any of these diets actually work? Possibly. But most are merely gimmicks to fatten someone’s wallet and they will do little to help those of us with a serious desire to shed the pounds and cut the fat once and for all.
