Do not get involved in diets, once on that treadmill you will never get off and you only set yourself up for failure. The statistics of gaining weight once your come off a diet are extremely high.
Get youself on a healthy eating regime (and exercise plan) and if you are eating and drinking loads of junk then you will soon notice the weight drop off.
The Good Food Doctor talks a lot of sense.
If you want to know what I eat then pm me and I will let you know. Since I have been following the healthy eating plan I haven't looked back. I still drink, eat out and entertain at home.

Although, there are good diets (aka 'Healthy Eating plans' out there) such as the South Beach diet for example, which is whole grain, good carbs and some alcohol. Some people DO benefit from an instructed regime to help themselves deal with deeper problems such as food addictions or underlying health problems.
A diet as such is only a way of eating. The Food Doctor's plan is still a 'diet'.

Either way, you got two choices - get yourself on a diet or relax, put your feet up with a nice pint and a pile of cream cakes!
