The first thing that you need to know when looking for an easy healthy diet is that you should generally look for one that Hollywood didn’t make famous. This place is known for its faddy diets big time. Celebrities jump onto the band wagon and make a diet famous and it really isn’t easy to follow at all. What you need to remember about celebrities is that they have personal trainers and fitness instructors and other resources available to them to help them lose weight.

The results that they get are the results of thousands on dollars of fitness trainers, expensive equipment, rare foods and the pressure to get back into shape quickly. You often find this when a celebrity has just given birth and wants to lose their baby weight. You hear the stories of them doing it in around a week or so, but this is only because they have all of the factors listed above.

If you are serious about losing weight then you should take a look at some easy diets that work and not some fad actress diet. The best was to lose weigth is a healthy way. You should not take up a diet plan that suggests you give up a food group for the whole diet. This is silly and really not healthy. These types of plans are not sustainable and do not allow you to keep the weight off. You will most likely just put the weight back on again afterwards.

Atkins diet

OK, this is a pretty famous one now and you probably already have the basic idea of what it involves. In the first week or so you can only have protein and fat with a maximum of 10g of carbs per day. This is pretty tough. It involves cutting out alot of basic foods that make up the most part of a normal persons diet. You can forget about bread, cakes, cookies, pasta, chocolate, sweets, desserts (other than strawberries and cream) and anything else similar to this. You will also be giving up most vegetables and fruits. Does this sound like an easy healthy diet to you? When a diet plan starts to suggest cutting out healthy foods like fruits and vegetables I would naturally tend to avoid it.

Maple syrup diet

This has gained some attention recently and more and more poeple are trying it. Basically you can’t eat any food on this diet. You can only drink a concoction of warm water, maple syrup, lemon juice and cheyenne pepper. I’m told it tastes quite bad and you can drink it around 3 times a day instead of actual food. Some people have lost quite alot of weight with this diet. This is because you basically are taking in around 300 calories per day. So really it is just a low calorie diet where you can only drink this mixture of maple syrup and water and nothing else. The weight that people lose is mainly water and muscle and some fat. Whats even worse is that people find that they put the weight right back on in the few weeks after coming off the maple syrup diet. So all in all this isn’t a good option if you want to keep the weight off.

Detox diet

I came across this diet a little while ago. It involves taking your diet down to the very basic levels. It cuts out all the bad foods and replaces them with fruits and other healthy foods. This diet involves a complete overhall of your normal eating habits but I have put it on this list of best easy diets because it is quite simple and easy to follow. basically you just have to eat healthy food. But the first phase is very difficult becuase you don’t get to eat whole food and instead have juice drinks. Thi is a hard phase to go through becuase you will be taking in very few calories. This may leave you feeling weak, tired and irritable. I have been on diets like this in the past so believe me I’ve been there.

Calorie shifting diet

This is a big thing in dieting right now. This diets basic principle involves eating in a so called “strategic way”. You are given a meal plan that is generated based on your preferred foods. You follow this plan for 11 days and then for 3 days you go back to eating normally. If you haven’t lost all of the weight you wanted to by this time then you can go back to the 11 day plan again and so on. This works by confusing your metabolism into burning as much fat as it can because it thinks you are overeating.
