"Put (one) on a diet" = Đặt một chế độ ăn kiêng cho ai.

Ví dụ
For years, Ferguson dealt with weight issues of her own and was cruelly dubbed the “Duchess of Pork” by the press after she put on several pounds. She called that time in her life “soul-destroying” so when Beatrice began overeating, Fergie stepped in and put her on a diet when she was 8.

Staff at Suffolk Owl Sanctuary in Stonham Aspal took her in weighing 245g, which is around a third heavier than a large healthy female little owl. They put her on a diet, and she lost 30g to 40g over two weeks. Thankfully, she thrived on the new regime and was released back into the wild on Sunday.

I want to be clear: As a curly-haired, dark-skinned, size 16/18 Indian woman, I love every inch of me. But the Indian wedding industry wants to put me on a diet. Designers and retailers seem stuck in a delusion (ảo tưởng, sự đánh lừa) that the average woman is a size 2 without breasts, hips or a butt. It’s about time the industry got a wake-up call.
