Dove appears to have started a trend in advertising. At one time beauty products and weight loss shakes were endorsed by models with perfect figures twirling around on television.

While there may be some credibility to the jump start that dieters can get from an initial quick-loss phase of a weight loss regimen, most successful diet plans are designed for gradual weight loss and modified behavior, says Robert Eckel, MD, president of the American Heart Association (AHA).
