Diets Work: Way or No Way?

Healthy, eat less and better food diets. Millions start a diet this week of the year. Do you think they work long term - as in 5-10-20 years? Are we capable of changing our bad habits for good?

Or do you think people only diet for short-term weight loss and then go back to whatever made them overweight in the first place? Maybe a school reunion diet, or bikini diet or only lasted 3 days on the diet?

I think it's the rare disciplined person who can diet and maintain that weight loss and new eating habits for the long-term. So I vote No Way. I know that sounds pessimistic, but it's so very hard to maintain over the long haul.

You?
