Default Is there a test to determine what diet program would work for me?

I seem to float from program to program and fad to fad. If I could take some sort of assessment test to figure out what program would work best for me, it would be GREAT!

Anyone know of anything like it?

I know something that might help The Perfect Fit Diet book is all about finding the right diet for you. I love this book. It contains a 48 page questionnaire to help you find the right diet for you. The book doesn't promote a specific diet, it's more of a guide to helping you find your perfect diet.

Whatever you can see yourself sticking to forever. Personally, I can calorie count and eat whole foods forever. Any short term diet (with a plan to end at a point in the future) just sets you up for short term success. Long term success is the real goal!!!

Anything that you may think of keeping up with forever! It doesnt have to as strict and as intensive or specific (I've lost a lot of weight on Cabbage soup diet in the past but gained it back just because i cant do it forever!).

I ahve friends who did jenny craig/nutrisystem and they did lose weight but gained it within 6 months of stopping the program.

Now I believe in slow and steady calorie counting and moderate but regular exercise to an extent that I know I can continue for ever...
