If you are overweight & looking around for a diet you need to reconsider. A diet - or at least the way they are sold today - are mostly like a band-aid or a reciepe for long term failure even if they work for the short term. The main issue with most of these diets is that they will not provide you with a well-balanced eating pattern. But, rather will tell you eat no carbs or no fat or whatever. This is not balanced, your body needs the fat & the carbs even if you are overweight. The key is to control the portions in a balanced way proportinal to how much overweight you are.
Let's agree on some points first; do you agree that obesity is some kind of disease? If you do, then read on. There was a study that showed that even if you are sick & crave for some kind of food, get some no matter what this food is. Let's apply this to obesity, let's say you are 70 lbs overweight & you are trying to apply the principles of my diet here but suddently you crave for an ice cream bar with caramel, nuts, and chocolate. That's totally fine, eat it & don't feel guilty about it. The fact that you crave it means that your body needs it. As long as you just eat one & have in mind that you are eating balanced, natural, and in moderation in general, you will be OK.
My point is, keep focused on eating healthy and apply these principles on a long term basis & exercise as often as you can. This will be your recipe for loosing those pounds for good. You may experience some minor increases of your weight along the way, but, that's normal & natural as long as you are loosing weight and feeling better on the long term. You will feel better because you are loosing weight without depriving yourself of any foods.
Keep positive attitude & good luck.
