Which of the many diet plans on the market will work for you? There are a vast array of diet plans around, and everyone has their favourite, even the stars - Claire Sweeney is a Weight Watcher, and Jennifer Aniston goes for a low-carb diet. But the diet plans that work for celebrities aren't necessarily going to suit your lifestyle.

Some diets are celebrity-endorsed, others are medically approved, and others come recommended through word of mouth. Some of the questions worth bearing in mind when choosing the right programme for you are:

How much can you lose?
How much will it cost?
How much inconvenience will it cause to your lifestyle?
How hungry is it going to leave you feeling?
