People who want to lose weight are are always looking for the fast weight loss diet. The issue is the pounds return after the diet ends, the yo-yo effect. Many fast loss diets are fad diets that don't work, but if integrated into an overall eating plan they can have benefits.

Here's a three day diet guaranteed to take off the weight. But make sure it's just one element of an overall healthy eating plan.

On day one breakfast is black coffee or tea with Sweet & Low or Equal or a glass of water, 1/2 Grapefruit or eight ounces of Juice, and one piece of toast with 1 tablespoon of Peanut Butter. Lunch consists of 1/2 Cup of Tuna on one slice of toast and black coffee or tea (sweetened with Sweet & Low or Equal) or water. Dinner consists of 3 ounces of a lean meat, one cup of green beans, one cup of carrots, one cup of vanilla ice cream, one medium apple, and as usual black coffee or tea (with Sweet & Low or Equal) or a glass of water.

On the second day breakfast consists of black coffee or tea (with Sweet & Low or Equal) or a glass of water, One egg any way,one piece of toast, and one banana. Lunch is one cup of cottage cheese or tuna, five saltine crackers, and black coffee or tea with Sweet & Low or Equal or water. Dinner includes two beef franks or hot dogs, one half cup of carrots,1 banana, 1 cup of broccoli or cabbage, one half cup of vanilla ice cream, and black coffee or tea with Sweet & Low or Equal or water.

And lastly for day three breakfast consists of black coffee or tea (with Sweet & Low or Equal) or a glass of water, 5 plain saltine crackers, one ounce(slice) cheddar cheese, and one apple. Lunch includes 1 hard boiled egg, a piece of toast, and black coffee or tea (with Sweet & Low or Equal) or a glass of water. Dinner includes one cup of tuna, 1 cup of carrots, one cup of cauliflower, 1 cup of melon, 1/2 cup of regular vanilla ice cream, and black coffee or tea (with Sweet & Low or Equal) or a glass of water.

Cottage cheese can be substituted for tuna, an orange can be substituted for grapefruit, frozen yogurt can replace the ice cream, and as much lemon, salt and pepper, and mustard can be used as needed.
