    If all it takes is one slip up for your diet to fail, you’re not dieting, you’re starving yourself.

      Don’t you basically have to starve yourself if you want to lose weight? Calories in and calories out. If you just meant a stable nutritional diet then I agree.

        There’s a lot of scam diets where they have you starving yourself so that you ultimately end up failing, putting on even more weight, feeling terrible, then buying another book/course/whatever. LPT: If it came from something you had to pay for and not your doctor, it’s a scam.
