The thing is, you can have an effective eating plan without going on Atkins or anything like that.
The secret is exercise - having a consistent schedule that includes both resistance training and cardio. If you do that, and limit the sugars and excess fats in your diet, you WILL lose weight and get into shape. Maybe not movie star or pro athlete shape, but you'll be healthy.
I've lost around 30-40 pounds since sophomore year of college, and am now a solid 170-175, depending on the week. I still give into my cravings once in a while (cookies, ice cream, a beer once in a while), but I've also taught myself to resist those cravings.
For most people (and I say most - I know some people must diet through more extreme means), eating reasonably healthy and excercising will get results.
