What's more sustainable - eating foods I like and make me feel good and energetic just by watching how much I eat of them or eating boring food that makes me feel like death warmed over and depriving myself of foods I like?
Besides that, i don't think you are thinking of CICO correctly if you are referring to slimming clubs and women's magazine, which usually are all about fad diets. There is a big difference in tracking calories and with eating a box of fat free cookies because they "are healthy". We haven't been obsessing over calories over the last 50 years as much as denying that they count and looking for ways to lose weight without counting them - Atkins, Low Fat, Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, etc.
