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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
