Get the Skinny on Fad Diets

I'd like to introduce our guest blogger for this week, Cynthia Topley.  Cynthia is a Dietetic Intern from Meredith College and will be working with Carolina Dining Services for the next eight weeks to complete her food service rotation.

My name is Cynthia Topley and I attended Wellesley College for my undergrad.  After graduating in 2007, I traveled in Australia and New Zealand then worked full-time as a lab tech before going to grad school at Meredith College for nutrition.  While in grad school, I married my husband, Stephen.  I completed my master degree in May 2013 and am currently in my dietetic internship at Meredith to earn my RD (Registered Dietitian) credential.

Fad diets make False Promises! Claims like "Lose 15 pounds in 15 days" and "Detox Your Colon" are inaccurate, unrealistic, and sometimes dangerous!  It's BEST to avoid fad diets and focus on a daily, healthy diet!
