One of the most startling pieces of raw historical data I've ever seen was the diary of the head gardener at Dalkeith Palace for the decades around 1800. As well as describing how he ran the garden, he met all the celebrity visitors and got to record their height and weight. They were astonishingly small and light by modern standards. By far the heaviest, out in a class of his own, was "Monsieur", later the Bourbon King Louis XVIII. At 13 stone. So whatever the diet and exercise regime of the Georgian aristocracy was, it was bloody effective at weight control.

robomatic, I think - but don't know the full evidence - that crash dieting e.g. The Biggest Loser TV show type of dieting, losing weight, then going back to bad eating habits and gaining weight can lead to yo-yo dieting and this can affect the metabolism. This is just a quick reflection on some of the things I have read or seen on reputable, scientific documentaries.

One thing I remember hearing about was that after the fat cells in a person's body are reduced in size they still have the capacity to get larger again - or maybe they multiply - but the problem lies in having a large fat storage capacity and then reducing that capacity and then increasing it again, especially time and again.

I'm just about to go out so I can't research it and give you more specific information but it might be worthwhile looking into that.

Ultimately, in my opinion, it comes back to changing eating habits *for life* to a healthy, balanced diet with lots of good nutritious food and a healthy lifestyle and not falling into the trap of losing weight and then *rewarding* myself with junk food and then spiralling back into old bad habits.

The video does say that the *reasoning* behind raw and paleo is poor, but that keto is just really hard to do, and that most people who claimed to be doing it, weren't, really. I thought that interesting.
I agree with the reasoning on paleo and raw. I agree that keto is hard to accomplish, and that I am not following it as designed (I am not hi-fat, just low-carb). However I did not find that the video said that it was poorly reasoned, or otherwise stupid. Which, as I said, I found interesting.

Jack, I think that keeping the food diary was a wake-up call. If I was completely honest and didn't fudge the entries or "forget" to write something down, or underestimate the portions then I could see exactly what food I was consuming and when. I couldn't hide my head in the sand.

It was a good motivator for change.

Since PMR is idiopathic, mentioned before, I looked at other factors beyond stress. Food that are considered inflammatory might be part of it, and wheat flour is one of those, so during most of the time I shopped for gluten free as a way to eliminated wheat from my diet. Since getting off of the steroids I've added wheat back, but I don't eat as much as I used to. If you read about how non-organic wheat is harvested, you would also. Farmers now often hit it with Glyphosate (Roundup) to desiccate it before harvest; Glyphosate doesn't bread down and it harms your gut bacteria just like it harms weeds. An article about it.

Shopping for me involves reading lots of labels to avoid various things I'm allergic to or often, simply things I'd rather not eat. I do most cooking from scratch.

As to plate size, I recently found more lunch plates to round out my set of stoneware I like for meals (the first five plates were picked up at a thrift store, a lovely pattern I thought I'd seen around more than turned out to be the case. It was quite some time before I could find more.) They're smaller than dinner plates but it doesn't look like you're being shortchanged, they're not small like salad plates or saucers. I've used lunch plates for years for the very reason of portion size. I have a few dinner plates in the pantry that are handy sometimes during meal preparation for some large piece of food that needs to thaw, for a volume of food that needs a plate instead of a bowl, etc. Sometimes for serving. Never for eating off of.

Doug, I only did the food diary for a week. It helps to look objectively at how much food and what type of food I eat normally. It's just a data-gathering exercise to look at my current normal situation before taking proactive steps to improve my eating habits.

One of the Van Tulleken doctors - it might have been Dr Xand - in a TV documentary carried a bucket around with him for one day. For every item of food he ate, he put another one in the bucket and then a scientist analysed it for calories, fats, sugars, etc or something like that. I'd rather a nice discreet little diary or an app on the phone. LOL

As alluded to in my post up above, I find that the details around weight loss and dieting can easily become a bit of an obsession, so no food diary for me.

I have, in the past, frozen leftovers then thrown them out 18 months later when found at the back corner of the freezer basket.

The smaller plates tip is something that I have already decided to take up and am looking out for plates of the appropriate size that fit in with our current crockery.

Mrrzy, I guess that means finding a healthy balance.

I wonder what exactly it is about the keto diet which positively affects mental health. That would be interesting to find out because then you could work out a healthy solution, using the part of the diet which works but opening your options for a wider variety of healthy food. I'm also wondering whether, on reaching and maintaining ketosis for a specified period of time, is there a next stage of maintaining your mental health on a modified version of the keto diet? So many questions.

Thanks for the clarification, Doug. I don't see the Fast diet as a short term fix, because for me personally it helped me to find a more balanced long term way of eating a healthy diet and I monitor my weight so that if it looks like my healthy balance is going out of whack, I do a modified version of the Fast diet. But, I tend to go for lots of veges and legumes as well as meat and dairy so my everyday nutrition is generally balanced, even allowing for some hot chips or dark chocolate or other treats every now and then.

One tip I have seen on the diet programmes is to keep a food diary for about a week, being totally honest about exactly what I eat and how much. It can be revealing when I look at it all written down, instead of thinking I can have a bit of this and a bit of that and "it shouldn't make much difference". As for leftovers, I cook large-ish amounts and I freeze portions so that we can have a quick healthy meal if I don't feel like cooking sometimes. Also, I tend to eat on a smaller plate because it makes the portion appear to be larger. It's a psychological trick but it seems to work. And another trick I used when I came home from work, instead of raiding the frig or pantry for something sweet or fatty, I'd have a bit of protein, e.g. a bit of low fat cheese or a piece of leftover roast beef to tide me over until I had cooked dinner.

On the other hand, the same website has this to say about using keto "for keeping your mental health in check" on their list of top diet plans.

3 Ketogenic Diet

The high-fat, low-carb ketogenic diet isn't just touted as a way to help you lose weight; research has also shown that it may be an effective tool for keeping your mental health in check. Laboratory rats fed ketogenic diets — which consist of lots of fish, natural fats, plenty of vegetables, and very few starchy, high-carbohydrate foods — showed improvements in their depression, anxiety, and ADHD.

25 Trendy Fad Diets That Are Total BS

The review of the keto diet for *weight loss* - so this is not about the use of the diet to alleviate seizures - is:


"23 Only Try the Ketogenic Diet If You're A Serious Athlete

"Your body runs on that bagel you ate this morning. But if you starve it of carbs, your body goes into a state of ketosis where it burns fat for fuel. In fact, it's a strategy some serious athletes are using to boost their performance, but for weight loss, it's not worth it. "It may help you lose weight more dramatically and it may be safe for a short period. However, since your kidneys filter out protein, a ketogenic diet can weaken them over time," says Mark Mincolla, Ph.D., author of The Whole Health Diet. Weight loss for your health? The trade off doesn't seem worth it."

Doug, I'm a little confused about your term "fad diet" because a diet developed and studied scientifically and approved by medical doctors is not a fad diet as I understand it.

Fad diets tend to be promoted by celebrities in the media or on social media and tend to have been invented by someone with little or no expertise in nutritional science who is motivated to become famous and rich. The TV show called The Diet Testers which appears to be aka How to Lose Weight Well, tried out a range of diets on some willing participants and any of the diets which rely on an extremely limited range of foods e.g. cabbage soup, or the potato diet and not healthy balanced eating, counts as a fad diet in my definition.

If a diet has been scientifically proven to work for a significant number of people after rigorous, evidence-based studies, then it's not a fad diet in my definition. It might be popular because it works so people are talking about it but, in my opinion, it doesn't make it a fad diet.

For years now I've paid attention to the amount of foods and logged them on My Fitness Pal with the various free parameters set so I can track (in particular) calcium. I also have it set on Carbs, Sugar, Cholesterol, and Fiber since I have five categories I can let it calculate. This is because in 2017 I was diagnosed with Polymyalgia Rheumatica. PMR. My rheumatologist tracked that and with steroids over the next 18 months it went away, but when you're taking steroids you have to be very careful with calcium because your bones can't add more, you need to get everything you need via diet so you don't end up robbing your bones and osteoporosis, etc., can develop.

I have an electronic scale in the kitchen and especially with foods that have calcium content I weighed so I could enter it and keep track. If I didn't get enough through food then I supplemented by taking calcium tablets, broken to the point to give me the 100% requirement. Taking too much calcium causes other problems. I haven't weighed food for diet reasons much for a while, but when I'm doing the alternate day fasting I will. Most of the time I can eyeball it; 1 cup of baked squash or steamed broccoli, instead of weighing, for example.

I see this doctor once a year for follow-up (PMR often stays away, but not always; it's idiopathic so we don't know the trigger, though it's my guess that stress was a major factor.) Now she watches for osteoporosis, as does my ob/gyn. Getting the calcium right is a life-long pursuit now.

There are some foods I don't bother to log on My Fitness Pal because I know they don't have calcium content to consider, but if I'm watching calories then they do get entered. It also has a category for amount of water drunk each day, and that's a good reminder in cooler weather to stay hydrated. I haven't bothered to join the paid version of the program because the free one does what I need. It's very helpful during the alternate day fasting, but don't use the "Complete this Entry" button when you're fasting or you'll get a scold that you haven't eaten enough food to keep body and soul alive. I rarely bother to complete any of the entry days, just keep that running log.

There is no single diet that suits everyone. I tried alsorts, including Atkins and fasting, with little or no sucess. The only thing that does it for me is watching what I put in and doing more. WW has worked well for me. I accept it is a lifestyle thing and not a temporary fix. The interesting thing I find with WW is that I count points rather than calories.

eat as much as you want to *of*

But very often I don't actually want it. I eat it because it's there. I don't need anything with a cup of tea or coffee but if the biscuit barrel is on the table then ...

Or, I'll raid the fridge each time I pass through the kitchen. I don't need to be hungry to take a nibble of cheese; a couple of prawns; a spoonful of coleslaw; - not much on their own but they all add up. The best cure for that is keeping busy so that I don't have time to graze.

Another thing is being a human dustbin. If something is getting near its use-by date, I will eat it up rather than throw it away. If I have made a meal with two reasonable portions but my wife only takes a small portion, then I will finish off what is left in the bowl.

The problem with fad diets is that when they come to an end, I go back to eating as before and pile the pounds back on. Educating my stomach to expect less seems a better way of making a change in lifestyle.

Portion control is by far the worst cocept for weight loss. Guaranteed to leave you wanting more. Far, far better to eat as much as you want, but select what you eat as much as you want to *of* [sorry, English, for mangling you].

Out of ketosis from a week of bday feasting including a bite of dessert most days, a coupla slices of bread or a mouthful of rice, here and there. Not gone nuts, though! So maybe my equanimity has gotten stronger. Might test it by having actual pasta. Might not.

The studies I've seen appear to show that most people don't lash out on the unhealthy stuff on non-fast days

Not true for everyone! I have tried every diet going, including 5:2. I start off being very good and lose weight as expected. Then slowly, slowly, my "eat what you want on the non-fast days" increases until I am undoing all the good work of the fast day. My mind then becomes fixated on how to stop this - even to the point of changing 5:2 to 4:3 (which I have done at sometime). Fixation is a big problem. What happens if your fast day coincides with a special occasion where you know you will be eating. Do you skip it? Bring it forward? Shift the whole cycle back one day? Add an extra fast day to compensate? It's not long before your diet is occupying all your thoughts.

..... it's not a long dreary slog with no end in sight.

The amount of weight I need to lose means that it is, inevitably, a long dreary slog with moments of despair when I plateau out for a week or more, before restarting the weight loss. There is no end in sight. I have lost 3 stone many times, only to put 3 stone 2 pounds back on again. My weight has followed a saw-tooth upward trend. I am now on the way down again but, this time, even losing 3 stone will leave me overweight. I know I can win the battle but, inevitably, I will lose the war.

I eat very little processed food, rarely have take-aways, drink only moderately and my taste for sweet things has decreased over the years. I eat a well balanced diet - I just eat too much. In my effort to get my five-a-day, I can demolish the fruit bowl. Eating too much meat means that I have to eat too much dessert to maintain the balance. My biggest problem is comfort eating through boredom

Steve has it right, upthread. Exercise, portion control and avoiding snacking are better than fad diets.

Maggie, my Hubby & I started doing the 5:2 fasting diet a few years ago and it worked for us. Five days a week of normal eating and two days of low calorie eating. We heard about it on a documentary by Dr Michael Mosley who looks at the science of all sorts of health issues in his TV shows.

The Beginner's Guide to the 5:2 Diet

We both lost weight and kept it off fairly well over the years. It becomes automatic to just cut back on calories as and when needed, after we adjusted to the routine, i.e. we only eat when we are hungry, not because the clock says it's meal time.

As for cold weather, we live in balmy east coast Oz, so what we call cold weather here wouldn't even rate a mention in your area, I expect. But in winter we tended to make soups or stews with lots of veges and legumes.

Eat, Fast, and Live Longer looks at a variety of medically supervised diets. The goal is to decrease risk for various things. In the past I've used the alternate day fasting successfully, though over time the weight I lost came back - but the bum knee was fixed right at the beginning of COVID so my mobility is restored, which is a huge help). I was doing it primarily to reduce cholesterol with the side benefit of losing a few pounds. Probably a "stone" for the UK crowd.

Successful alternate-day fasting tends to be seasonal - I wouldn't do it year round. Fasting in cold weather is difficult when your body naturally is trying to hold onto calories to keep you warm. A veterinarian friend made that observation that seems to be true, though wasn't discussed in the hour-long documentary. Lose weight in warmer weather and just try to maintain the level during cold weather.
