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. By contrast the mad fad diets offer the promise of huge weight reduction in a very short stretch of time.

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.

I know just why I was so successful and why you should consider looking at this. The main reason is the rules that you have to follow.

Fad diets have very strict rules that you have to follow. You know exactly what is expected of you. 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.

Standard diets by contrast allow you a huge range of food options but this is where the rules get confusing. You are so busy counting points and calories that you do not know quite what you are allowed to eat and when.

The rules become a friend you get to rely on because you know and understand them so well. But of course then the question is can you stick to the diet rules you are given. The rules that you do have are in a way much harder to stick to but you also expect to be hungry on this type of diet so you expect this. It creates a sort of virtuous circle of thought processes that give you more resolve.

The diet rules are why they are effective. I just like the simple and easy to follow rules of mad fad diets.
