Crazy diet plans

Late the other night, I was watching a re-run of Denise Richard's show on TV. I caught the episode Jacki told us about -- where Denise was discussing the lemonade diet with her friends.

The lemonade diet isn't the only ridiculous plan out there. DivineCaroline counts down what they consider to be the top 10 most ridiculous diets out there. Some of their picks include the Cookie Diet, the Subway Diet, the Cabbage Soup Diet, and the Apple Cider Vinegar Diet.

Personally, I think that if you want to lose weight you should go old school. Eat healthfully, exercise, and get plenty of rest. There's a reason that advice like that has been around for years and years -- it works. It may take time to lose weight, but in the long run that's the best way to do it. Fads come and go. They rarely have lasting power and while many of them give you quick results, it's often difficult to maintain the loss.
