Hollywood diet
This diet originated in Hollywood and is a supposed 48 hour miracle diet. While being on the diet, people theoretically lose between 5 and 15 pounds. Results vary depending on the person. The diet has you mix certain juices together to stimulate your metabolism and help you burn fat.
While on the diet, people should refrain from drinking alcohol, smoking, and consuming caffeine. Instead they will drink a specially formulated juice. This juice will be the only thing that they consume for the next couple of days. It contains 100 percent of the necessary vitamins and minerals you need in a regular diet.
Getting the book or the plan for this diet might be a bit costly. Also, the success of this diet is mainly due to the fact that it is extremely low in calories. It can be quite easy to lose weight if you starve yourself. People who go on this diet can expect to be weak and not very happy. Also, it's hard to keep the weight off if you don't dramatically change your eating habits after the diet is complete.
