Diets are temporary. Once you’re done, you’ll go back to old habits and regain the weight. What you need is a lifestyle plan: something you can comfortably stick to for life.
If you can remember and stick to the following, you’ll be set for life:
Eat plenty of protein, fats, and fiber.
Keep carbs and sugar to a minimum. (Not all sugars are created equal. Sugar from fruit is a lot healthier than sugar from processed food).
Exercise every day. Alternate between muscle and cardio exercises every day, or make a schedule that works best for you, just make sure you allow your muscles time to rest. (Muscles are key to increasing your metabolism and burning more calories)
Fast once every week. 16, 24, or 32 hours are all good options, but don’t fast more than 24 hours unless you’re a massive fatass - you don’t want to accidentally start eating your own muscles due to not having enough fat for your body to burn.
TL;DR
Also, once you get used to fasting, you’ll notice you’re not as hungry as often anymore (your stomach has shrunk). That’s when you can more easily switch to eating only once or twice a day.
