  1. Depends upon the definition of “dieting”.

    I have been following a diet for the last 3 months which I know works for me but i haven’t been starving. And I’ve lost 20 pounds. It will sound familiar to many:

    No bread, grains, cereals, macaroni, hugely reduced sugar.

    Basically the Barry Sears Zone diet without to much calculation. Veggies, meat, some fruit.

    1. I’ve been on a similar “low carb” diet since early February, and I am down 23 pounds.

  2. After 20 years of research all Traci Mann has learned is helplessness. If you read the article you linked to, you’ll find that her conclusion is that overweight people should just learn to be happy with who they are. Or as Bart Simpson famously said, “Can’t win, don’t try, gotcha.”

  3. Gosh, that’s weird. I didn’t know my fad diet would cause me to regain the 22 pounds I lost years ago.

    I just checked the scale after consuming a lot of chicken and tubers and I am still below 160 lbs.

  4. The article linked to about Traci Mann is pure garbage. All it was is: blah, blah, blah, not fair, blah, blah, blah, can’t change, blah, blah, blah, be happy being fat. What a load of crap.

    I was not happy being fat. Sure it takes work and discipline to make a major change in one’s life, but what worthwhile goal doesn’t. I’m not a naturally slim person, but I’m not going to roll over and just accept my fate to die of heart disease, diabetes and stroke. I’m better than that and I hope most other people are as well.
