3 day diet - anyone tried it?

[evedawn]

this diet consists of strict pre-set diet for three days then normal (but not pigging out) eating for 4 days. Then starting 3 day diet again etc, etc.

been around since the 80's- anyone done it? With any success?

Instead of these gimmick diets why not try to get yourself on a good "normal" diet that you can be on every day, and for the rest of your life.

That is the only was to really lose weight and keep it off.
