Diets, diets, diets. Which one is right for you?

"Lose weight while eating chocolate chip cookies at every meal!"

"Drink 4 cups of green tea every day - it'll boost your metabolism and melt off fat like crazy!"

"Skip breakfast and eat only two big meals a day. You won't even have to worry about counting calories!"

With so many contradicting diets and crazes floating around the internet nowadays, most of them turning out to be trends lasting for only a summer, how do you figure out which is best for you?

Something worth pointing out, the diets claiming you'll lose x amount of pounds in x weeks are complete nonsense. Not only will you be depriving yourself in one way or another, but you will also likely gain back the weight you lost, if not more, after returning to your normal eating habits.

Don't follow diets promising immediate results. Rather, change your lifestyle and food choices in a way that will promote optimal health and leave you feeling energized and ready to take on the world!

Our body needs certain nutrients to cater to its high demands - without them, we would crash and burn. So no wonder you were left feeling unsatisfied and fatigued while on the other diets; it was your body's way of telling you, "Give me some real food!"

In comes the Mediterranean diet, which isn't a "diet" so to speak, but a way of living.

In "Mediterranean Diet", you will discover:

• 200+ undeniably delicious Mediterranean-approved recipes that will satisfy all your flavor needs
• A complete breakdown and guide to which foods you should eat in order to reap all the invaluable benefits this traditional "poor people's" diet has to offer
• Why not all vegetable oils are the same, and which ones you should be using for optimal health
• How changing to a Mediterranean diet can do wonders for your overall well-being, as well as your waistline
• Common misconceptions people have about this lifestyle, and just how much of it is actually truth
• Straight-forward, easy instructions that even the beginner of all beginners can understand and accomplish
• The endless food combinations you can make while on the Mediterranean diet, and how it's nowhere near restricting as you may have fretted

And much more.

If you're worried about being the odd one out at social gatherings because of your food choices, don't be. The Mediterranean diet includes common foods you would come across at parties or functions, such as cut veggies, cheese, and bread, so there's no need to bring your own lunch pack or feel like an inconvenience.

You also don't have to eliminate any food groups from your diet either, making this lifestyle so much more sustainable and satisfying than any other diet you'll come across online. All you have to do is limit certain foods you may be eating, but there's nothing more to it than that!

Even if you don't consider yourself to be the world's best cook, you certainly don't have to be in order to follow these recipes. The cooking techniques used are so simple, that even a 12-year-old would be able to understand them - you've got this in the bag!

This is no gimmick, and no extra purchases will be required of you. All you need is a bag full of groceries and the will to spend a little time in your kitchen to prepare some tasty meals.

So, what are you waiting for? A happier, healthier, trimmer you is just around the corner...
