It strips you of any pride or satisfaction and worst of all sets you up for a lifetime of rollercoaster yo yo dieting.

This second option isn't as sexy or as glamorous as the first one. If there was we'd all be in fantastic shape all the time. The problem with option one is that it promises the world but gives you nothing but a hole in your pocket.

Firstly you can follow the crowd and get the same results as everyone else... However option two is the one that most. No, the second way won't have you dashing out to the shops after a few days to buy a whole new wardrobe, but let's be honest here, there isn't a solution like this that works. You won't drop a dress size in a week or have to change absolutely nothing in your life other than popping a few pills or guzzling down the latest miracle weight loss solution in order to get results. Short term weight loss and then a sudden increase in weight when the diet fails and you lose interest, or you can take the other option.
