		<description><![CDATA[The Grapefruit Diet is a fad diet where you must eat bacon, vegatables, meat, fish until you are stuffed. Is this an effective diet?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Grapefruit diet is not a diet for life. It is a short time diet; it only lasts  2 1/2 months. It is a diet for rapid weight loss and fast weight loss diets are always popular.  We have seen popular diets come and go and this dieting program is no exception; we can call it a fad diet. It is also a weight loss diet for real heavy weighters who need to lose lots of pounds. If you follow this diet exactly you should be able to lose 52 pounds during this two and a half month&#8217;s dieting period. To sustain the weight loss however, you need to change to a long term diet.  The usefulness of this diet is to motivate people who are severely overweight towards a flying dieting start.  If you look at the diet this way, it might be useful for you.</p>
<p><b>General Guidelines</b></p>
<ul>
<li>During this diet you should reduce your coffee consumption, it slows down  the burning process. Only one cup a day</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t  eliminate anything from the diet. The combinations of food listed in the diet are important for the fat burning (especially bacon AND salads)</li>
<li>Drink eight 8 oz. glasses of water per day which means 64 oz. total daily</li>
<li>Fry your food in butter and cover your vegetables generously with butter</li>
<li>If you want you may double or even triple helpings of meat, salad or vegetables</li>
<li>Never change the amount of grapefruit or juice. This has to do with the diet&#8217;s fat burning effect</li>
<li>This diet allows no desserts, breads, white vegetables or sweet potatoes</li>
<li>The diet does not allow eating between meals. If you follow the diet you will not get hungry</li>
<li>Stay on the diet 12 days, then stop the diet for 2 days and repeat the dieting cycle for two and a half month (approximately 75 days)..</li>
<li>On this diet you can eat until you are stuffed</li>
<li>Never eat less than the minimum listed at each meal in this diet.</li>
</ul>
<p><b>The Diet Plan</b></p>
<p>Breakfast:  
<ul>
<li>Either 1/2 grapefruit OR 8 oz. unsweetened juice</li>
<li>2 eggs any style</li>
<li>2 slices of bacon</li>
</ul>
<p>Lunch:  
<ul>
<li>Either 1/2 grapefruit OR 8 oz. unsweetened juice</li>
<li>Salad with any dressing</li>
<li>Meat any style and any amount</li>
</ul>
<p>Dinner:  
<ul>
<li>Either 1/2 grapefruit OR 8 oz. unsweetened juice</li>
<li>Salad with any dressing OR a red or green vegetable cooked in butter or spices</li>
<li>Meat or Fish any style cooked any way</li>
<li>Coffee or Tea (1 cup)</li>
</ul>
<p>Evening Snack:  
<ul>
<li>8 oz. glass of tomato juice or 8 oz cup of skim milk.</li>
</ul>
<p>This diet is not for everyone but could be right for you. Good Luck!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[A fad diet can be found offline or online as an e-diet or offline. It promises over-weight people instant weight loss. But can it really help you if you don't change your exercise habits?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is a fad diet? Walking the less resistant way seems to be a part of our nature.  Of course most over-weight people want to get rid of their excessive pounds yesterday, if  possible. Many more or less serious weight loss e-diet or online diet makers know this and try to take advantage of a person&#8217;s various diet needs.  The weight loss diet industry is so big and competitive that dietary sensations can seem necessary to stand out from the crowd.  This is what we call fad diets.</p>
<p>Fad-diets often promise to bring instant weight loss. Most fad-diets are not diets for life.  They are normally short time diets, not balanced at all and are not designed for obtaining a  sustainable weight loss. What a crash diet might do for you however, is  get you started with your dieting.  A fad crash diet might be the flying start of the weight loss proccess that you need.  If you only use fad diets as starters, like a catapult for changing your eating and exercise habits permanently, it shouldn&#8217;t do you any harm. If you decide to start up a fad or any diet for that matter always consult your physician first.  I take no responsibility whatsoever for any health damages it may cause you.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t over-exert yourself whether it be exercise, working and other things that may require an effort.This might be too stressful on your system even if you&#8217;re feeling fine during the diet. If you get an acute attack of hunger during the dieting, drink a glass or two of water. It will fill up your stomach and remove the worst hunger feeling.  Another tip is to suck on ice when you&#8217;re dieting.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t yet built up your will power, stay away from social activities like going out dining with friends, birthday or wedding parties with lots of food and alcohol when dieting. Since the duration of  most fad diets are very short, it should be possible to avoid such situations. Try to limit the period of dieting to maximum 7 days at a time. Most of these fad diets are not meant to be kept for longer periods of time. Non balanced  diets will not supply you with the nutrition your body need to function normally.</p>
<p>When the diet period is over, don&#8217;t run to the closest MacDonald and eat 3 Big Macs with triple servings of french fries and a gallon of Coke or sit in front of your TV eating Pizza and Beer. Celebrate the end of your dieting, but not with food.</p>
<p>Now you can start up with a balanced diet.  This crash diet hopefully gives you a flying start of a sustainable and healthy weight reduction.</p>
