Stupid Fat Loss Trends
You don’t need me to tell you that some of the advice out there for fat loss is just plain bad.

Things like low-carb, low-fat, vegan and keto diets will always be around, whether we like and recommend them or not. But sometimes, a trend comes along that’s so utterly crazy, it makes you question peoples’ sanity.

The decision follows a two-month interagency standoff over whether the systems posed a risk to general aviation and commercial aircraft, as well as incidents in Texas earlier this year that briefly led to an airspace closure.
