Welcome to Fad Diet Dot Com. I think we all know that fad diets are not the best way in the world to lose weight but rather than demonize them like every other "expert" let's agree to enjoy their silliness. I will drop the condescending tone of most professionals. Instead lets remember the humor about dieting and have a good time.

I have tried to compile a comprehensive list of fad diets along with some interesting weight loss humor. Most of these diets have been around since the mid-seventies and many of them circulate anew each year. There is nothing new about fad diets. They didn't really work then and they don't really work today.

I apologize if I am not helping you lose weight. Trust me, if there was a way I could improve your appearance by reading this page I would do it. Unfortunately, there is no magic pill. There is no special combination of foods that will make you lose weight.

Losing weight is as simple as it is difficult. To lose weight you need to eat less calories than you burn. Increase your activity level and decrease the amount of calories you consume and you will lose weight. It is so simple that none of us is capable of doing it. So let's just have a laugh about it.

At present, my favorite pages on the website include:

• Favorite Fad Diet: The 7 Day Diet - The idea of eating all you can eat to lose weight is very funny to me.
• Least Favorite Fad Diet: The 3 Day Diet - Mainly because I don't like any of the foods in it.
• One other thing this website is good for is if you made a bet with a friend. Say, you and your friend made a bet about who could lose the most weight in one week. Well, it is day 6 and you are losing the race. Visit the Amputation Diet page for some really useful tips to win that bet.
