Scarsdale Diet

The Scarsdale diet claims the ability to help people lose an average of one pound per day. This is probably an over optimistic and unhealthy weight goal. The diet consists predominately of fresh fruit, vegetables and lean meat with only 3 meals per day - no food or snacks in between. Particularly with respect to fruits and vegetables, certain parts of the menu allow you to eat as much of a particular food as you would like.
