Almost 1 in 10 people in the state now have diabetes, more than double the number who did only 15 years ago, according to Centers for Disease Control data released today. Ohio's rate is higher than the national average of 1 in 14, but is by no means the worst.

Did you ever notice how many fad diet programs there are out there? Whether low-carb, low-calorie, or low-fat, there is always a gimick out their to help you lose weight.

Did you ever wonder why there are so many different type programs out there. After all, if they all worked people wouldn’t always be on the look out for the latest fad diet.

THE TRUTH!!!

FAD DIETS DO NOT WORK OVER THE LONG HAUL!!

Sure, you may lose some weight. Problem is, most of these diets do not allow you to follow them over a long period of time. I’m here to tell you that you do not need fad diets such as the grapefruit diet or anything else. In fact – you can lose the weight enjoying the foods you love. After all – isn’t that the key to long term success?



So what does work? Eating fewer calories than you burn off or burning more calories than you take in. It is really that simple. Calories really do count — no matter what you’ve read in magazine articles.
