I followed the same diet for 20 years, eliminating starches, living on salads, lean meat, and small portions.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have been on a diet since 1962.
After trying Atkins and doing Nutrisystem a few times, now I'm just focused on maintaining a healthy lifestyle rather than dieting.
I'm a much healthier eater and I've lost quite a bit of weight over the years.
I stopped dieting on plain, boring, unsatisfying food and started eating rich, delicious meals full of flavor and, yes... fat. I got skinny on fat and realized I would never have to diet again.
I've been dieting my whole life because I have a tremendous appetite.
I don't think you can name one diet I haven't done.
I've done every diet there is.
Having - and keeping to - a regular exercise routine is crucial. And forget about those extreme diets - they aren't healthy.
I did every diet: Atkins. Cabbage-soup diet. Dean Ornish. But I couldn't live the rest of my life like a rabbit.
I started dieting. I dieted, dieted, dieted and tried all the diets and I would lose and then I would go back to normal eating and would put it on and then some.
