If you are interested in learning how to lose weight fast without the need for exercise, than you probably know already about some of the fast diet options that are out there. Each has their pros and cons, so ultimately it is always up to you (and your personal goals and expectations) to choose one of them to implement.
Mainly, there are three criteria one should keep in mind when it comes to diets:
1) Effectiveness. Arguably, some diets simply work better than others as far as losing weightis concerned. Choosing one that delivers is, of course, vital to our goals.
2) Cost. There is always an element of financial planning involved in following any diet. Some diets require slightly larger and / or more specific investments in order to work. This must be taken into consideration as well.
3) Ease. It is undeniable that certain methods are easier and more appealing to implement than others. Depending on your goals, degree of commitment and motivation you should choose a diet that you sincerely feel is a realistic project for you.
Now, let´s discuss a few of the most well-known diet options specifically aimed to allow you to lose weight fast.
- The Scarsdale Diet. For those who do not wish to feel hungry and need to lose more than a few pounds over the course of several weeks, this is a good option. The idea is to follow a strictly laid out meal plan, divided in cycles, that lasts until the desired results are achieved. The first two weeks you follow the Scarsdale Medial Diet (SMD), after which you take another two weeks of "Keep Trim Eating", a more flexible and personalized diet, then start over again. This diet promises a weight loss of 7 to 15 pounds the first two weeks.
- The Lemonade Diet. Strictly for those with a strong level of motivation and will, the lemonade diet is what is known as a cleansing and elimination diet, meaning that the body will "flush" itself with the liquid you consume, in the absence of solid food. Lemonade, salt water flush and herbal tea make up the daily ingestion. This type of radical diet should never be undertaken without medical supervision.
- The Hollywood Diet. Another short diet that claims to allow you to lose up to 8 pounds in two days, the Hollywood Diet proposes that you drink only the juice of the same name for 2 days. It can be found in stores, as well as made at home.
- The Cabbage Soup Diet. Another popular one, ideal if you only need to diet for less than 7 days, and are on a budget. As its name implies, cabbage soup is the main source of nutrition in this diet plan.
So, as you see, there are a number of options. The ones I´ve mentioned are simply a few off the top of the list; there is also the grapefruit diet, vegetarian versions of the Scarsdale, etc.
Bottom line is this: look for a diet that is within your current realm of possibilities, both health-wise and financially. If you´re up for it, choose one that suits you, do your research and always consult with your doctor before going on any diet.
