What dietary restrictions/additions are the most beneficial?

Whether religious, Atkins, New Age, or vegetarian, what do you recommend and why? I am structuring a dietary plan for myself.

Answers:
Eat only when you're truly hungry, several times a day (think more like five or six).
Eat meals about the size of a loosely closed fist which is the natural and unstretched size of a stomach.
Drink a glass of water a few minutes before eating, because a lot of hunger pangs are actually your body asking for water. Drink TONS of water, at least a half gallon a day.
Eat natural, whole foods.
Stay away from processed, prepackaged stuff.

I haven't read it, but You On A Diet by Dr. Oz (and someone else) is supposedly a good book. It teaches healthy eating.
Watch your salt and sugar intake, reduce red meats and keep an eye on your carb intake
