To keep your weight loss routine healthy and effective, avoid extreme or "crash" dieting. The ideal diet for healthy weight loss is a sustainable one. By their very natures, crash diets are short-term ordeals. Even though they may offer substantial short-term results, their long-term effect is negligible, or even harmful. It is better to develop a diet you can stick to over time - even permanently.
Try to avoid any fad diets, like 30-day programs or diets that prohibit eating whatsoever, i.e. liquid diets. While these types of programs might produce short-term results, they do absolutely nothing to get at the root causes of why people gain weight in the first place. In other words, they're worthless.

If you love pairing wine with dinner and you are trying to lose weight, don't cut it out of your life completely--it has heart-healthy benefits. Instead, try ordering it glass-by-glass. When you order a bottle of wine, it is common to try to finish the bottle instead of saving it for later. When you resist the bottle, you resist the extra calories that come with it.
Consider working with a personal trainer when you are trying to lose weight. Whether you choose a one-time consultation or ongoing support, a trainer can help you create a regimen that works for your goals and your health. Long-term work with a trainer can also keep you engaged and motivated in your exercise routine.
Only eat when your stomach is growling. People often eat out of boredom, habit or nervousness. If you only eat when your stomach is growling, you will only fill your stomach with food when it is needed. If you feel like you could eat anything you can reach for, chances are you really are hungry.
