A 2000 calorie diet plan is a great one because it is so easy to stick to. The biggest obstacle most dieters encounter is their inability to stick with the diet plan over the long haul. The 2000 calorie diet provides you with enough calories to eat most of the foods you like, while maintaining a healthy intake of calories. You can't sit down and eat a carton of ice cream or a whole pizza, but as long as you maintain reasonable control over the type and amount of food you eat, staying with the 2000 calorie diet is easy.
