Calorie counting doesn’t lead to permanent weight loss. Strenuous exercise programs may be more detrimental than beneficial, and often times do not address the specific weight you are trying to loose (i.e. belly fat). Blacklisting foods can set you up for failure, liquid diets and crazy cleanses lead to deprivation and chronic binging, which can set the stage for gaining back the weight lost with an added couple of pounds.
