5. At the end of the report, write a paragraph outlining if you would recommend this diet, why or why not. Also, review what likelihood someone will succeed on this diet.

Editing and revising is the crux of this course. It is detailed, complex, and hard work. Describe your revision process to your classmates. What strategies do you use when you edit and revise? Did you revise your essay in one session or did you spread it out over multiple revision sessions? Did you find yourself lowering your standards if you found significant problems (e.g., your research didn''t support your thesis) or admit you needed to throw some of it away and rewrite a section of it?
