I am 50lbs overweight and have tried weight watchers and diabetic diets and I am not too crazy about veggies. I dislike almost all of them, except for canned green beans and frozen corn. please help.
I need to write a compare-contrast paper on two popular diets– I was wanting do use Weight Watchers as one, but I can't decide on the second one.
I want to choose something that is very strict with the food– like nutrysystem or jenny craig.
what are some other "interesting" diets?
well, i wanted to do weight watchers becasue you can still eat whatever you want, but you're watching calories, fat and fiber to create points….
jenny craig food is loaded with salt and so restrictive….
when i went on weight watchers after i had my baby, my diet consisted of coke, twinkies, water and cereal, and i still lost 3 lbs in a week……
the key is moderation!!!!!
No matter how you slice it - the one thing that all diets have that work - everything from Atkins to South Beach — is calorie reduction. All these "diets" are just tricks to get you to eat less. Sure, the Atkins has a metabolic effect by lowering carb intake, but everyone I know who has tried Atkins has ALSO reduced their calories (even if they didn't do it consciously). They find themselves ordering the steak dinner at a restaurant and discarding the baked potato. Well, that jumbo backed potato has several hundred calories. If you eat your steak, green vegetable, and a soup, but skipped the potato - what have you done? Reduced calories!
With all these juice diets and soup diets — weight watchers — and all the rest — add them up! People doing these things are eating less!
People! Eat less and eat right! That's the way to do it. Don't do Atkins or juice diets. Don't starve yourself. Take in 500 calories a day less than you burn, and you WILL lose weight.
Diets that involve either packaged meals or ways to eat, like Nutrisystem. I want people to only speak from experience here. I know Nutrisystem seems great but the food like really disgusting and I would not eat it everyday. I don't want to know about Weight Watchers either. I exericse regularly but I need a good eating pattern. Not looking to be told to eat plenty of vegetables and acai berries. Looking for input on fad meal planning diets. Thanks!
