There are as many different recommendations for supposedly successful diets as there are people trying to lose weight. What works for one person will not necessarily work for another due to metabolic differences and lifestyle factors. Many 'fad' diets become popular for a short space of time - the grapefruit diet as well as Atkins are good examples of this. On the grapefruit diet, the consumption of grapefruit with each meal was said to increase the metabolic rate, burning fat and enabling rapid weight loss. Like most fad diets, the grapefruit diet was eventually found to be entirely ineffective, and it was replaced by the next fad - Atkins. Atkins encouraged cutting out carbohydrates and encouraged foods such as red meat, which led to a strong commercial effort to popularize beef.

Successful weight loss diet is all about energy in vs. energy out. If a person takes in fewer calories than he or she expends over a period of time, the person may burn fat and subsequently lose weight. To lose a pound of fat, one must create a caloric deficit of approximately 3,500 calories; therefore, if a person creates a deficit of 500 calories per day, the person will lose approximately 1 pound of fat per week. However, these numbers are strictly "in theory," and again what works for one person usually will not work for all.

Certain religions, including Judaism and Islam, also impose strict restrictions on diet, but these are not usually thought of as "dieting".
