None of these magic diet programs work. What does work is a proper nutrition program that puts you in a calorie deficit.
The laws of thermodynamics will always apply. It basically works like this
body weight = calories in - calories out
To loose body weight, you need to burn more calories then you consume. Simple as that.
Check out this video I made on how to calculate your calorie, protein, fat and carb intake based on your goals ->

A rough estimate to determine how many calories you need is to multiply your body weight (in pounds) by 15. That will give you the amount of calories needed to maintain your current body weight. If your goal is to gain weight, multiply your body weight by 17-18. If your goal is to loose weigh, multiply your body weight by 12-13.
For example, a 200 pound person would need 3000 calories to maintain his weight (200 x 15 = 3000).
Once you have determined your calorie needs. Set your protein intake. A good number to shoot for is:
1-1.5 grams of protein/pound of body weight for natural athletes
1.5-2grams of protein/pound of body weight for enhance athletes
Once you have set your protein intake, fill the rest of your calorie intake with carbohydrates and fat.
You didn't mention your body weight but I would multiply your bodyweight by 12 to get your calorie number for each day.
