Why should you join our friendly dieting community?
Do you want to lose 5, 10, 15 pounds and just can't make it happen?
Need to get ready for a wedding or beach vacation? Maybe it's leftover baby weight
or perhaps it's a beer belly (which brewed up in college). No matter
where the weight came from, we can help you take it off. We are not here to sell
you anything - we promise & it's all free. All we do is put a
wealth of weight-loss information at your finger tips, give you access to experts,
fun weight-loss information, tracking tools, easy to follow meal plans, plus a
rock-strong community of other dieters to offer cheerleading, and best of all, friendship.
You have nothing to lose, except for that extra weight, of course.

A Nutritionist Weighs in...
Most adolescents should focus less on dieting and more on learning healthy eating practices that they will continue throughout life. While going on a diet is not recommended for most healthy teens, it is always better to choose vegetables over candy. This plan focuses on healthy foods, exercise, and even encourages cooking - a skill every teenager should have. Many of the food recommendations could benefit the entire family. It is also nice to see a focus on teens getting in the kitchen and a focus on food safety - something not commonly addressed in other diet plans.
It's clear that Frank Gotti had some input from nutrition professionals with this plan, and he does credit a number of people who helped. However, since some of the exercise techniques are incorrect, he probably should have gotten more help there.
If you're a teenage boy, this one's for you
This diet is extremely practical - but only for a specific population of teenage boys. There are realistic recommendations and applications that a teenage boy may actually put into practice.
