Dieting is the practice of ingesting food in a regulated fashion to achieve or maintain a controlled weight. In most cases dieting is used in combination with physical exercise to lose weight in those who are overweight or obese. Some athletes however aspire to gain weight (usually in the form of muscle). Diets can also be used to maintain a stable body weight.

Diets to promote weight loss are generally divided into four categories: low-fat, low-carbohydrate, low-calorie, and very low calorie. A meta-analysis of six randomized controlled trials found no difference between the main diet types (low calorie, low carbohydrate, and low fat), with a 2–4 kilogram weight loss in all studies. At two years all calorie-reduced diet types cause equal weight loss irrespective of the macronutrients emphasized.

Types of diets

Low-fat diets

Main article: Low-fat diet

Low-fat diets involve the reduction of the percentage of fat in one's diet. Calorie consumption is reduced but not purposely so. Diets of this type include NCEP Step I and II. A meta-analysis of 16 trials of 2–12 months' duration found that low-fat diets resulted in weight loss of 3.2 kg (7.1 lb) over eating as normal.

How does one "fix" their metabolism after yo-yo dieting and starving themselves for so long?
Q. Yo-yo dieting and starvation diets leave a lot of people's metabolism (mine included) messed up, since one goes into metabolic "starvation mode" from major calorie cutting. How can a person stuck in this situation get out of it? How can one get their metabolism running correctly after "starving themselves?" Jesus flipping Christ! This section is nothing but goddamn spam!

A. JFC indeed, have just reported the nuisances. If you want to slowly get your body out of starvation mode, start eating plenty of healthy things, like salad and fruit. That way your body will kick start back into its normal metabolic rate, after a while it should be ok to eat normally again without your body absorbing everything that is put into it! Some say small amounts frequently which makes sense to me. Others say 3 well balanced meals a day - also sounds good to me. Choose whatever suits you best.
