Most typically "dieting" means eating in a carefully planned way in an attempt to reduce excess body fat and decrease bodily measurements and clothing size. In this sense, there are a number of so-called diets that can be used as part of a regimen of dieting. Also in this sense, excessive dieting is related to anorexia nervosa and bulimia, which are life-threatening conditions. There are many organisations, such as Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig, that support weight loss efforts on a for-profit basis, by providing prepared food or special menus and individual or group counselling sessions, as well as teaching exercise routines, with the aim of improving clients' lifestyles and enabling them to maintain successful weight loss. It is highly questionable as to the overall long-term success of these diets, however, as many people gain the weight they've lost back - and then some.

Dieting is the practice or habit of eating (and drinking) in a regulated fashion with the aim of losing (or, sometimes, gaining) weight, or in some cases to regulate the amounts of certain nutrients. One of the first known person that successfully lost weight by dieting was William Banting in 1863.

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