Fad diets fade fast but nutrition lasts
Smart diets and exercise are the right way to go

Fad diets are exactly what the name entails: a fad. They die out just as quickly as they come in. There’s always a new diet that promises you will reach your ideal weight in no time at all, get the perfect form or the opposite sex to notice you.

So what’s the problem with these “lifesaving” diets? Why shouldn’t they be appealing? The answer is that most of them don’t work anyway and just leave us feeling hopeless.

Every time I see one of my male friends, he inquires about whether his clothes look good.
