  1. One thing they all have in common when losing weight is CALORIE DEFICT ! its funny when people go extreme on random diets and think they lost weight because of that diet and thinking its the perfect diet. when it was just calorie deficit.

    EAT AND ENJOY FOOD IN MODERATION. its simple, and if you can't do that, just calculate how much calories your body need based on your activity and height

  2. I avoid lactose even though I'm not completely lactose intolerant (tested via blood test), I just have slightly less stomach issues that way.

  3. The low-carb diet craze in the 90s and 2000s drove me insane, it made no sense to me at all. It should have been called the Fatkins Diet, lol.

  4. I myself are the extreme case of the first diet explained in this video. I drink milk, some soda, while also eating jack all for most of the day. I also exercise so likely I eat less than 1200 calories per day. I've been doing this strict dieting for about a month to gain strength and lose weight. I used to be like 210 while at 5'7 which is kinda fat tbh. Now I'm like 183.

  7. I'm Spanish, and I have to say that sadly, the Mediterranean diet is slowly fading away here. It's very sad, but the convinience of processed foods is getting to our society and ruining our diet. An aspect I love about Mediterranean diet is the consumption of legumes, which every time I eat, give me good energy without feeling heavy. And scientifically, lentils are just as good as quinoa and other modern cereals. I always try to eat the Mediterranean diet, mostly doing it locally sourced.
