Living in Weight Maintenance Mode

Yes, forever. Weight loss doesn’t last very long in the grand scheme of things. Only a few weeks, months or years. In contrast, weight maintenance is meant to last the rest of your life. That’s why most people struggle to maintain. Eventually they forget all those good healthy lifestyle habits and go back to their old ways. Use this section as motivation to keep maintaining for life.

Watch Your Weight Forever

As long as you keep an eye on your weight, it’s possible to maintain forever. I believe the number one reason people start regaining is not tracking their weight. You can track on the scale, with a measuring tape, using figure-hugging clothes, or by taking pictures of yourself regularly. Pick the tracking method you prefer — choose at least one — and be consistent. By keeping an eye on your weight and size, you can nip any relapse or regain in the bud early on.
