Why Calorie Counting Doesn’t Work (and How to Succeed Without It)

Calorie counting sounds so simple as a weight loss strategy: you eat fewer calories than you need and you lose weight. It would seem that all you have to do is work out how many calories you need and add up the calories in everything you eat, then make sure that you don’t eat too many.

By Khalid Hasan

WASHINGTON: A new study shows that all slimming diets are in the end equally ineffective.

According to a study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, a typical diet helps people lose 6 percent of their weight – 10 to 15 pounds – and most who lose weight gain it all back within five years. Weight loss drugs were also found to be equally ineffective in the long run.
