It's hard enough to deal with being overweight, but the existence of literally hundreds of fad diets out there makes it even harder because the opportunity to lose weight healthily and then keeping the weight off keeps getting dangled in front of you, only leaving you disheartened in the end.
When people make use of fad diets, chances are they always gain back the weight that they lose sooner or later, if they lose any weight at all.
The Mayo Diet Program, also known as the Mayo Diet Book, has been created to change all of that.
The difference with the Mayo Diet, which is not a fad, is that it does not make itself out to be a magic formula.
Instead, the Mayo Diet book contains a program that helps you lose weight the healthy way, hence making it easier for you to keep the weight off once you have done so.
This diet is not about crazy schemes and formulas that will supposedly help you lose weight quickly and painlessly.
It is a lifestyle that teaches you how to be healthy, how to change your habits so that it leads to weight loss, and how to enjoy eating without having to torture yourself afterwards because of guilt.
The Mayo Diet is comprised of two phases, which you have to go through in order for you to successfully lose weight:

• Losing the weight - this is the first part of the program.
  In this phase, you will need to set aside two weeks to successfully change your eating habits and give yourself enough time to adjust.
  The two weeks will result in your losing as much as 6-10 pounds, but is done in a way so that you do not end up going back to your overeating once the two weeks is done.
  
• Living without the weight, and keeping it off - the next phase of the Mayo Diet, which comes after the massive weight loss during the first two weeks, is written out in a way that will teach you to live so that you continue to lose 1 to 2 pounds a week.
  This may seem slow, but this is what is entailed of a habit forming regimen that will make sure that your habits do not sneak up on you and eventually lead you to gaining back all the weight that you worked so hard to lose.
  

These two phases have been designed by the Mayo Clinic to make sure that the people who follow it closely will continue to lose weight until they reach their desired goal, but at the same time still enjoy being able to eat.
This is because the Mayo Diet is based on extensive research on the right ways of forming eating habits so that you do not eat in a way that will be disadvantageous to you.
When you try out the Mayo Diet book, it is going to become your weight loss bible.
This is because it will not only change your eating habits and your dress size, but it will also affect the way you live your life.
