This paper discusses some diets that are being increasingly recommended for weight loss by the dieticians and nutritionists:
The founder of Atkins diet – Dr. Robert C. Atkins says that he has proposed “the amazing no-hunger weight-loss plan that has helped millions lose weight and keep it off.

The Induction stage lasts for 2 weeks and foods to be taken are defined at the start of the stage. The person can take absolutely none of a food that was not included in the plan in the start.
