I’m a firm believer in not just dieting but creating a healthy lifestyle, something that a person can stick to. With that being said, what diets have worked for you? Have you stuck to them and made them apart of your lifestyle or did you just diet short term?
I think I’ve tried to lose weight with all sorts of diets such as the soup diet and shakes, and also eating under a dangerous 600 calories or skipping meals which was all out of desperation. I finally took the time to feed some knowledge into my head on healthy eating and excercising and soon realised that commitment was all that it took to make ones success. I cut out late night snacking and watched my food portions. It depends on every individual and their obstacles.
I lost over 35 lbs from including lots of physical activity into my daily routines and watching what I put in my mouth. Now and again I will eat at fast food places or treat myself to ice cream but it’s not as much as I used to before. Today I’m still kicking near a 40 lb loss and plan to practice healthy eating and excercise for the rest of my life… or else it wouldn’t be a ‘lifestyle change’

I’ve been dieting in a healthy, serious way for a little over a year now, and it’s worked out amazingly….I’m not longer ‘dieting’ , but just eating healthy as you said you wish to do…anyway, there’s no secret in mine, just eating lean proteins, healthy fats (keep saturated below 10% of total calories), and plenty of complex carbs (veggies, whole grain, rice, whole wheat pasta, etc) , and of course the simple good carbs (fruits and fruit juices, etc)
I stick to 25-30% protein, 50-55% carbs, and 20-25% fat on a daily basis, doesn’t have to be exact though if you just want to eat healthy and not be on a strict "diet" ….feel free to endulge once in a while if you keep up this diet =)…the other thing is just to make sure you exercise reguarly, but eating right is most important
good luck!

Lost 70lbs
I tried to eliminate extra salt, and that worked pretty well. I try not to buy all the junk food I used to, and that worked even better. I increased my exercise to a min. of 3 days a week, that works the best. You really have to rethink you’re whole lifestyle. This will sound bad, but I don’t date ‘heavy’ (I’m not just talking a few pounds…) girls anymore. It’s not that I don’t like them, it’s their (mostly) unhealthy lifestyle, it drags me down. I can stay motivated to be healthy with a partner who’s always eating the things I wish I could have! I just don’t have the willpower.

Weight Watchers promotes healthy eating and choices. It has worked for me
I lost weight on Diet Center and on a liquid diet, but did not keep it off

I excercise 4-5 times a week. I always eat 3 healthy meals a day. I never skip meals. I dont really eat fast food (its the devil), but it can gets hard. I started this short term but i kept up with it. Now that i lost the wieght I cut the time for my workout but I still do it.
GOOD LUCK
