Dieting

Different images come to different people when they hear the word “diet.” I’m sure each and every one of you pictures something different. I bet that not everyone will believe me when I say you are all on diets. Diet is just another word to say what a person normally takes in as food and drink. As we watch TV or go out to dinner at different restaurants, we see all around us different diets; it is impossible to get away from them. Today, I’m going to tell you about the 2 most popular “diets” and the 1 tried-and-true “diet.”

The first and most popular diet would be the Atkins diet. Everywhere you look, there are “Atkins friendly” meals; Subway and TGIFriday’s being the most common places to see these items.

Another diet very similar to this one is the ever popular South Beach Diet. This was developed by a doctor in south Florida by the name of Arthur Agatston. He is a cardiologist and developed this for his chronically overweight heart patients. The South Beach Diet, according to Dr Agatston, is not about eating low-carb or low-fat meals. It is about eating the right carbs with the right fats.
