There is sensible weight loss dieting and then there are mad fad diets. The sensible diets recommend a slow steady approach to losing weight with controlled and restrictive eating. The fad diets do not offer a steady weight loss. They promise large reduction in weight in a matter of weeks.

It seems impossible for these very low calorie diets to work? They claim great things but you must know that they are not based on normal food and ideas. I know this because I have lost 5 stones in a space of just 15 weeks on one of these diets.

There are very definite reasons why this diet worked for me and why it could work for you. This is primarily because of set and fixed rules for you to adhere to.

Fad diets have very strict rules that you have to follow. They are so simply even a guy can make sense of them. They give you a meal plan that says “this is what you can eat” It is very limited and usually quite boring but you know that if you stick to the diet rules you will lose the weight.

Normal weight loss diets work on the basis of reducing your food intake generally and closely watching what you eat. You are so busy counting points and calories that you do not know quite what you are allowed to eat and when.

You can see that the simplicity of the diet rules help you on this type of program. But of course then the question is can you stick to the diet rules you are given. I maintain that you do need a much stronger will to stick to the rules but because they are so rigid you know you are going to be hungry and expect it. It creates a sort of virtuous circle of thought processes that give you more resolve.

Rules for diets are what make them work. I just like the simple and easy to follow rules of mad fad diets.
