Most American diets even bad ones provide more than enough calcium for bone health especially for men.

I don't really believe in diets. I love food... If I deprive myself I'm going to want it more. I snack on yogurt raw cashews and cherry tomatoes.

Everyone would talk about their diets and working out and what it made me do was go to craft services where all the food for the cast and crew was and I would eat.

Most diets would have you cutting things out from your diet they are about denial and discipline.

I've had weight issues all my life. I've been on all the diets: Atkins liquid protein Scarsdale diet. Now I go to the gym often. I'm always on the StairMaster and I do weights.

If you continually diet you are putting your body in a quasi-famine situation. It slows your metabolism down and breaks the thermostat. Diets don't work. They don't help you understand why you're eating more than your body wanted in the first place.

I don't do faddy diets any more. I once did a no-carbs diet a few years ago but it made me depressed. I couldn't be doing with that!

My biggest regret is putting my body through fad diets - Atkins cleanses the hCG diet.

Do not suppose however that I intend to urge a diet of classics on anybody. I have seen such diets at work. I have known people who have actually read all or almost all the guaranteed Hundred Best Books. God save us from reading nothing but the best.

We always think of a diet with a big groan. But I think diets are fun. I think it is an American pastime for a lot of women.
