With so many diets to choose from, where does a patient seeking to lose weight begin? An article published earlier this year in the Journal of the American Medical Association sheds some light on the controversial topic by comparing four popular diets: Atkins, Ornish, Weight Watchers and Zone. The investigators concluded that the key to losing weight may not be which diet plan a patient selects but sticking with the plan that is chosen.

1. The Glycemic Index


What it is:

The Gylcemic Index (GI) diet encourages consumption of slow-burning carbs that release sugar slowly into the bloodstream. The speed at which a food is digested is measured by the GI, which scores glucose at 100 and rates other foods against that number.

How it measures up:

Unfortunately, he’s also been a pro at gaining it back. Until recently, that is. Patient believes he’s found the way out of the yo-yo dieting that’s been the theme of much of his life. In July 2001, patient and his wife joined Weight Watchers® and faithfully kept with the program. Over a three-year period, patient lost 145 pounds, his wife lost 50. He really enjoys this lifestyle. He doesn’t think of it as a diet. Patient weight problems started as a teenager.

He was concerned about entering the second half of his life and being overweight. He also realized that, as you age, it’s increasingly difficult to lose weight and easier to pack on the pounds. Those issues gave patient the nudge he needed to shed 40 pounds during the summer of 2003. Patient wasn’t a person you’d think of as overweight but, according to body mass index (BMI) calculations, he was obese since he was more than 30 pounds over what the index recommended.
