My freshman year of college I did Nutri-system. This is when you had to go in each week for a meeting and weigh in. The food was gross! I lost 40 pounds, got to a point that I physically could not eat the food anymore – just the thought of it made me sick. I quit, secretly threw out the rest of the food and quickly gained the weight back.

I’ve only dieted 4 times in my life. Once in college to lose the Freshman 15. I suppose that was the craziest as mom and I both ate 1000 calories per day.

The other three times I used Weight Watchers, although I have said good-bye to WW and am now counting calories and watching nutrients.

I have gone to an EFT therapist? (don’t know the correct name for the person who does that) and it did nothing for me. I have downloaded a manual to do it myself, and still nada. It makes me a bit sad because I think it sounds like a wonderful technique. Looks like a good book. =)

I've tried a LOT but none to crazy. Probably the craziest was the Physician's Weight Loss (kind of like Medifast) where you're only eating (drinking mostly) 800-900 calories a day. I lost about 100 lbs and gained it all back plus more. .-= Dawn´s last blog ..Almost there =-.

For me, it has to be the Cabbage Soup Diet. What was I thinking!? Keeping it real – real food, real portions is the only thing that works long term.
Cheers!

Hi Lori! Fran suggested I have a look at your blog as I have just started with NRL4W – watching your videos is going to be a big help to me as sometimes I can’t figure out exactly what to do from the pictures in the book!
As for the craziest diet I ever tried, this may surprise some people, but it was Weight Watchers for me. I got so obsessed with points that I ended up developing an eating disorder after doing it for six months. I know now I can never go back to that kind of regimented eating, I have to change my habits slowly and stay away from anything extreme. That said, I know WW works very well for lots of people – it just didn’t agree with me.

The craziest diet I ever tried was the one where I read diet books constantly, searched out healthy recipes, planned to exercise, thought endlessly about how I was losing weight, and congratulated myself for working so hard–all while actually never cutting back on calories or getting much exercise. The “mind” diet is the craziest one of all–at some point the BODY has to get involved!

My craziest diet was green grapes. I would count out 300 calories worth of grapes 3 times a day. Total of 900 calories for the day, stuck with this for about 4 weeks. Lost a lot of weight but then gained it all back as soon as I began to eat again!
