I just want to know what you people think about the extreme diets.

I hate doing diets, i’m not fat, but i should eat healthier, though. Well, i know girls from my school who are insane if we talk about food. I cant bare to check the calories of this food and that drink (eww). So then, i was curious of why this girls are so worried if they look fine to me.
Well, feel free to write if against or in favor and why please :).

well, I dont eat much in general, if you added up my caleries, the would probibly be like, a thousand per day. but if I started gaining weight, I would eat smaller portions instead of eating healthier. maybe eat more candy and vitimen drinks.

People do it because socioty(sp) says that we should look a certian way, magazines and newspapers and even celebrities.
We go on fad diets hopeign that each time we do some magic thing will happen and we will be the way we want to look even though if we ever got there we would still not be any happier.
Fact is that a diet takes a long time to work and by the time it starts to work we give up and move to the next one.
The quicker you lose weight then the faster it will go back on and some more.

The slower you diet then the more chance you have of makeing it stick.

hollywood has set the “standard” for many girls.. It is a warped ideaof what is healthy.. Trust me this is sick… Look at the girls who are modeling .. They look like twigs, and are totaly unattractive….. You need to stay slim by eating right , excercising and having a life outside of starving yourself…. I like a girl who isnt neoritic about her weight.. How boring to obsee about her weight..

I dont agree or disagree with girls who want to be thinner. I think that people like the fantisy of being a celebrity or being beautiful, and being super-thin is a part of that.

Not everyone thinks that super-thin is beautiful. Personally, I wouldn’t want to date a skeleton. Except for maybe on Halloween.

I havebeen on the Cambridge diet which is around 500cals per day if you choose sole source because of high blood pressure I had to get my doctors ok before I started.I am very overweight about 5stone had tried various diets but as Lazydaze said you dont loose fast enough and start another diet or give up altogether.
The reason I like the cambridge diet IS because you loose weight FAST it encourages you to keep going I have lost 2stone now. My weight is monitered by the rep for cambridge every week any problems she is there to help.
My blood pressure has dropped and I hope to reduce my pills soon.Even when you reach your goal weight there is a maintance program so you keep the weight off.
My only regret is putting so much weight on in the first place because Im no spring chicken I am going to be left with saggy skin if I were younger it might have sprung back into place. So take heed all you folks out there dont let yourself become obese at least stay within a stone above your ideal weight dont let it go any more than that cause its so dificult to loose it.

i definetely agree with codegangster, lazydaze, aeolian and jcd. Its true when i say that i cant bear doing diets. It is waaaaaay too complicated for me and actually i prefer running or dancing 5 times per week instead of not eating for a whole month…urghh..

isi..well, i think what you are doing must be hard; however, if that diet isnt harmful for yourself and makes you feel good, you go girl! i hope everything is allright there…=)

uuh! THANKS AL OF YOU FOR POSTING!
