I was just skimming the diet boards and seen some people posting things to beginners that really scared me, so i hoped i could help a few people out with here...
There are a number of what could be considered by some as "Extreme Diets" that discussed on this board...
Whether or not these diets are for you is up to you (and in some cases your doctor) to decide. All this post is pointing out is that it is best if you do your research and not jump into any extreme diet.
Beginners to dieting should recognize that the first steps in getting lean/healthy are portion control and moderation in your diet, drastic changes are not generally maintained for an extended period of time and will just leave you feeling more discouraged if you don't have the willpower to maintain.
Before starting any specific diet, ask questions of the more knowledgable posters for the diets you are interested (they're the ones who take the time to explain the diet and understand your current situation and goals), read past posts (use the search function) and make an educated decision on what is best for you and your body...
good luck to all
