Which is the best diet for long term use?

Viagra.   Anything that may give you a four hour erection, because let's face it, you're going to have to work that off somehow.

Also get some of those drugs that make you sleepwalk.

Wait a second, we're already on page 5 and just three votes?

Mmm... I diet thread an no women posting?

Oh, right...

Quoting Dr. Phil here, but one thing I know is true for a lot of women: lose the hurt, lose the weight.

It doesn't have really much to do with what you eat, but I find that a lot of girls (I'm sure it's true for some men too) tend to eat their emotions, something like that. I have seen some women's dress size increase everytime they're having relationship issues, and that usually makes things worse. You feel bad about something, you eat, you put on weight, you feel bad about that, you eat more...

Quite the vicious circle. I think some careful examination of the state of your life is quite helpful to lose weight. You need to figure out why you've put on the weight in the first place, to figure out what needs to be worked on exactly. In my case, after uni, it was really working quite far away from home, and spending 2 hours a day in the car, coming home too tired to do any exercise. I've made the changes than needed to be done, found plenty of time in my schedule to get daily exercise.

Another thing too: all those diet sodas and fake sugars, get rid of them. They mess up your tastes buds. Nothing tastes as sweet as it really is because of them, so you need more sugar to satisfy those cravings.

I have tried all sorts in my time on this Big Blue Ball and I guess everyone works differently but High protein, Low fat seems to be the most successful for losing weight but keeping energy. The sad thing is just one drink turns the diet into High protein/HIGH fat

Two words - crystal meth.  Just kidding. Amphetamines were commonly prescribed for weight loss before the realization that addiction, heart disease, and dental problems were common consequences. I did not vote in the poll because the correct answer is - see your doctor. The condition of your health needs to be determined, along with consideration of any medications you take (including over the counter products) before an effective diet can be prescribed without serious consequences.

No vegetables? That's highly unhealthy.
Oh, and by the way, post your pics before calling us fatties





(but I still wonder how you discovered it anyway... I never posted my photo, no one can know I'm overweighted!).

Everything in moderation, especially moderation.

Beer and donuts.
