I'm pretty sure all plans and diets work if you follow their strict guidelines.
One thing is to cut out all empty calories like beer, soda, chips, candy... etc etc.
Keep hearing good things about the Carnivore Diet and might try it for 30 days down the road.
The cure is to make a plan that works and continue to constantly follow it.
It appears when a person hits a plateau or wall for 3 or 4 days of not losing weight you can break that wall through long term fasting (3 days).
I suppose you could forgo the fasting and increase physical activity as well.
Either will work to break the wall.
You can argue that point if you want to as well.
