Volumetrics
The secret behind the Volumetrics diet is to fill your plate with low-calorie, high-volume foods like fruits, veggies, nonfat milk and soup so you feel stuffed without packing on the pounds. The recipe books offer meal plans, but soon you'll be able to swap out high-density items for smarter choices.
Cost: The program has no membership fee, but you’ll want to grab the diet plan’s books for guidance. The Ultimate Volumetrics Diet: Smart, Simple, Science-Based Strategies for Losing Weight and Keeping It Off costs $27.50.
