Maybe we knew it all along that our diet was destined to failure because of its sheer ridiculousness: The Subway Diet<\/a>, the Cookie Diet<\/a>, the Cabbage Soup Diet<\/a>. But in a recently published article, 25 of the most popular diets are analyzed for their nutritional content, staying-power and promised results to show just how far we diet-obsessed Americans will go to lose a few pounds. For many of us, I’m sure we can check a few or even more of these 25 diets as “Yep, I’ve tried that one. And that one too.” For some, maybe they worked, even if just temporarily.<\/p>\n

Some clearly require the will-power of a military general (the Master Cleanser<\/a>) and some promise a cancer-free life (the Macrobiotic Diet<\/a>). But all of them have one thing in common: They all strive to be the one end-all-be-all way for you to lose weight. Maybe I could eat three Subway sandwiches every day for the next 6 weeks to lose weight, but once that 6 weeks is up, what do I eat? More sandwiches?<\/p>\n

Interestingly enough, the one diet that research shows to have long-lasting success stories is Weight Watchers<\/a>, because it lays out a way of eating for life and it forces you to look at some of the underlying issues in your own personal life that may be thwarting your health goals.<\/p>\n

Check out the 25 Diets article<\/a> and tell us what you think. If you have tried one of these diets, let us know what your experience was with it.<\/p>\n
