Permanent results require permanent change. --UnknownThere is not a shortage of weight loss in this country. Everywhere you look there is a new fad diet, new "superfoods", and lots of people trying to make changes. The shortage is the permanent results. Very few people who go on a diet are able to maintain their weight loss. In fact most people will not only gain back all the weight they lost, many will then continue to gain weight and be heavier than when they started. Why is that?
It's because people see diets as a temporary thing. They think "I'm overweight. I'm going to eat healthy while I feel motivated and it's convenient." Ok maybe not in those exact words but that's how a lot of dieters start. They get this big hoorah to be healthier, which is great, you need that. But after the first week, the newness starts to wear off, temptations are all around, and eventually most dieter fall back into old habits.
If you lost weight eating healthier and exercising, you need to keep eating healthier and exercising to keep the weight off. This is not a one and done kind of deal.
Hakuna matata!
