选择减重计划时，先问自己以下几个由美国营养协会所建议提出的问题:
How qualified 6 are the people running the program?Is their sole claim to fame the fact that they lost some weight recently and now think they can show everybody else how to do so? Program leaders should be trained and experienced.
负责执行该减肥计划的人员是否有此资质?这些人最近减了些体重，现在就认为他们能教大家如何减肥，仅仅这点是不是就成了他们出名的原因?带领减肥计划的人应该是受过训练而且是有经验的。
Does the program present nutrition information,encourage you to exercise and offer counseling to help you change your habits and attitudes toward food?
该项计划是否提出相关营养的信息、鼓励你要运动，并提供咨询以帮助你改变个人习惯以及对食物的态度?
Does the program offer follow-up? A good program will not just help you get thin and then send you off to fend 7 for yourself. A good program will help you stay healthy and fit.
该项计划是否提供追踪治疗?好的减肥计划不是只帮助你变瘦，然后把你打发走让你自生自灭。好的减肥计划会帮助你持续保诗健康强壮。
