In this article I want to compare two diet plans which get their share of attention, the General Motors Diet and the Every Other Day Diet. I hope to be able to help you figure out which of these two diet plans is better for you to lose weight, keep it off, and feel better about yourself.I will base this comparison on the following criteria:
Support
Long term value
Price
Ease of use
Proven record
SupportThe General Motors diet is a program with unclear origins. No one claims to be its creator. There is no official version of it. Even GM has denied any connection to the diet. Therefore, there is no support system for the GM diet. Whatever questions you may have you will need to figure out yourself.The EODD diet was created by Jon Benson, has an official website and a support system to go with it where you can ask questions and get answers from Jon Benson himself.Long Term ValueEach of these two diet plans can help you lose weight. However, there is no doubt that because the General Motors diet is the more strict program of the two with a low calorie makeup, it is also the one with the lower long term value. You just can't stick to such a low calorie diet plan for long. The EODD diet, on the other hand, is much less restrictive and so can be used for longer.However, if you're looking for a quick burst of weight loss, the GM diet can certainly be useful.PriceThe General Motors diet is free for anyone to use. The guidelines can be found online. The Every Other Day Diet does cost money. There is a trial offer for this program for just $4.95 so it's an affordable program, but nothing beats free when it comes to price.Ease of UseGM Diet is a low calorie restrictive plan and so is not so easy to follow. EODD is much more simple to follow and stick to for long. However, the GM diet is very easy to understand and apply the guidelines, so it's not such an easy call.Proven RecordThere is no doubt that the General Motors diet has helped people to lose weight. However, it is unclear for how long. The EODD diet has a proven record with more testimonials and expert reviews which indicate positive and impressive results.Both of these programs are likely to remain popular. The question of support and ease of use is important so make sure to make an informed decision about it.
