These are the names of just some of the diets that people of- ten try in an effort to lose weight. It can be overwhelming just thinking about it, let alone choosing which one to go with. But according to Darwin- based dietician, Richard Sager, fad diets or quick-fix programs which include shakes, points, drugs and restrictions will not work in the long term. ‘‘These programs offer a quick loss of weight but sadly the weight is gained right back because people return to their old eating habits and old life- style,’’ he said. Richard advises people to avoid the types of diets which recommend a certain nutrient or a combination of foods encouraging you to lose weight fast. ‘‘Fad diets do not teach life- style habits for long-term weight management, they do not help people build their cap- acity to change. ‘‘Promoting a very low energy diet and no exercise program cause the body to become less efficient at burning fat, making it easier to store fat and regain weight each time a diet is stopped. ‘‘In the long run these fad diets make a person fatter in- stead of leaner. Ultimately these fad diets are not safe,’’ Richard said. According to the dietician, using fad diets will make your body experience both starvation and weight regain in a short amount of time. ‘‘It’s important to decrease the amount of fat your body holds on to. ‘‘However we need to remem- ber this is not the only indicator of your total health,’’ Richard said.
