If you’ve ever tried to lose weight, then you’re probably familiar with the vast number of dieting books on the market. Every author promises that you will lose weight on their diet. And in many respects this is true. In fact, every diet can be backed up by people who have shed weight while on the diet plan. So in this regard, diets work.
