Okay, you have a choice. It's either a grapefruit or banana.
Choose the one that tastes better to you, because you are going to be seeing that lovely piece of fruit for quite a time now, if you choose to follow one of these proven weight loss diet plans.
It's already the beginning of 2009. It's a new year, and so many women and men have high hopes of shedding pounds.
Sure, there are tons of diet plans out there. Some work, and sadly, some do not.We are offering you 2 weight loss plans. There are no gimmicks here. Both diets are safe and healthy.
Grapefruit Diet
Eat a little grapefruit before every meal. Very simple diet plan.
According to the Journal of Medicine Food, half a grapefruit before meals can help you lose about 4 lbs. in 12 weeks.
A grapefruit is full of fiber, only 100 Calories, about 23 Carbs. and low in sodium, and high in potassium.
A grapefruit has a 65% water content.
The fruit's fiber and water helps fill you up, so you eat less.
So rather than indulging in a soup or salad, try eating half a grapefruit before your main course.
Morning Banana Diet
We shared this diet with you here, a few months ago. It began in Japan, and everyone's gone crazy over bananas and shedding pounds. Even Time Magazine got the scoop on it:
"The Morning Banana Diet consists of one or more bananas with room-temperature water for breakfast; an optional snack at 3 p.m.; and anything you want for lunch and dinner. The catch: You can't eat desserts after meals, dinner has to be consumed by 8 p.m. , and you have to go to bed by midnight."
Bananas are rich in potassium. But the yellow, creamy 100 Calorie treat is much more than that. Packed with fiber, iron, and protein, Vitamins B6 and C.
And Bananas also stop your craving for sugar. And the fruit is high in minerals that reduce cholesterol.
And they are great for pregnant women, because they contain good things that help keep blood sugars up.
There you have it---two intelligent weight loss plans for the new year. Healthy and safe.
Happy weight loss!

Thanx for the Banana diet. Now that I can manage. Love bananas.
I would pick the bananas too, though I'm not sure I can do this all or nothing stuff.
Maybe one day I'll find the motivation.
Thanks for checking in, ladies. I like bananas, too, but I'm wondering if I'd get bored after a week of so many bananas.
I'm not wild about grapefruit, but that diet seems easier.
But I think the diets make sense because of the good stuff these two pieces of fruit contain in them.
