Worst diet ever?



Recommended Posts

My worst diet was probably hypnosis (positive changes). I gained 50 lbs on it so, no, not for me. My most successful diet was probably Atkins. It worked well for me in the first 8 months (lost about 100) until I stopped eating low carb and ate whatever.

Did the hypnotist make you act like a chicken while you were under?

Medifast...that stuff made me sick as a dog. I got to the point where I would rather not eat than gag down another packet. Blech!!

No, but I see what you are getting at. :) I think the problem was I am not a good hypnosis subject, too strong willed. Big waste of $2000+.

Ha! An all Water fast ala Dr Joel Fuhrman.

Best one I liked was Dukan diet..lean-high protein/very low sugar-carb.

Worst ever... It was Alli before it was OTC. I got the Rx. I also ate a slice if pizza and ruined a desk chair. That grease spot was one if the most embarrassing moments of my life. I lost only my pride.

I hated weight watchers. The constant counting!!! Urgh!!! Every morsel AND you would hope that you could find the right "points" for whatever it was you were gonna eat

The HcG diet. I starved myself for a week on that diet and actually fainted at my sister's house. It was awful. And scary :(

The worst diet to me is ANY diet! The BEST products have to be PLEXUS. I started using the slim (pink drink) and accelerator on Aug. 10 in anticipation of my surgery. I have never felt deprived and actually was able to stop taking my insulin after two weeks (products were originally designed to regulate blood sugar.) I still take the Metformin, but only need 2 a day rather than 4. I added the probio5 at about one month and the inches really started dropping. I no longer have intense sugar cravings and my nighttime appetite is nearly gone. There is also a Protein supplement that I will be using right before and after the surgery. These products are so awesome that people started asking me if I had already had surgery, and when I said I hadn't yet, wanted to know how to get the products, I signed on immediately as an ambassador to get the wholesale price, but now I'm making enough to cover my monthly supply, plus some. :-). I will definitely continue to use Plexus after surgery and will be adding the XFactor Vitamin supplement, as well.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
