What’s more, calorie counting can do more harm than good, taking the pleasure out of eating and contributing to developing an unhealthy relationship with food. That can make it even harder to achieve and maintain a healthy weight.
For long term weight loss, it’s important to follow evidence-based programs from health-care professionals and make gradual changes to your lifestyle to ensure you form habits that last a lifetime.

Excessive calories are bad for you.
Every one needs calories. Avoiding fats and oils means you turn to carbohydrates and sugars, both of which have a higher glycemic index.
