3. Elimination Diets are Not About Weight Loss

Elimination diets aren't meant to help you lose weight. They're different from thirty-day cleanses, or other pared-down fad diets. You may lose weight on an elimination diet simply because you're not eating excess carbs and processed foods. The goal is to pinpoint, through elimination, food items to which you have sensitivities, and return to a normal regime free of only those foods.
