Weight Watchers
Weight Watchers While DASH diet may be the best overall choice for changing your eating habits, Weight Watchers won U.S. News' best diet for weight loss. The diet works by calculating a SmartPoints number based on your gender, weight, height, and age. Every food item -- and I do mean every item you can think of, including restaurant dishes -- is assigned a point value based on nutrition. Fruits and most vegetables are zero points, which helps curb the "I'm starving" feeling that sometimes starts the moment you decide to diet. Weight Watchers is also a very convenient diet, with an app and website to check point values and local meetings for in-person support. Evidence suggests Weight Watchers users are more likely to lose weight the more they use the brand's tools (and even more so if they attend meetings), and dieters lose an average of six pounds after four weeks.
