You may surprised by the fact that losing weight is not the main challenge for most people. Keeping it off is much more of a struggle.

We get it: With so much contradictory advice floating around about the best diets for weight loss, it's no wonder many of us end up confused about what we should eat for optimal well-being and a healthy weight.
