How to Choose Your Diet



With all the different diet plans available out there, how do you know which is the right one for you? Well, to help sift through all the confusion we have provided a summary and review of the most popular diets.

After looking at the reviews, if you still feel you don’t know which diet plan to choose, what do you do? Well, you can begin by signing up (free) with a few plans that look promising and try their free profiles. This will help give you a better feel of each diet program.

See which one fits your goals. You can begin by writing down what you want to accomplish:

Do you want to lose weight fast or are you looking for long term weight loss maintenance? How much do you want to spend? What’s more convenient for you - a plan that offers pre-packaged foods or one that includes foods from the supermarket?

Look at the tools and weight loss support that they offer. Some diet plans offer real live dietitians to answer questions online. Others have forums, chat rooms, newsletters, journals and calculators, recipes, buddy systems or a certain combination of the above.

The other thing to look for is the success rate or track record of the plan. Is it a reputable company? The bottom line is, you have to feel comfortable with the diet plan and it must fill your needs. Good luck!

Helpful post. Thanks. I've been on the South Beach diet for a while now. I'm having a little success with it. It's a little hard getting used to.
