Howdy maintenance gurus --
I am having trouble staying on program consistently. I know that if I am going to maintain my weight loss, I will have to eat well and exercise nearly every day for the rest of my life. How do you all keep doing well over a long period of time?
I have been successful in keeping off the weight that I've lost over the past two and a half years, so I know I can do it. But right now I'm in a rut. IMHO I'm being reasonable about my program; formerly eating 1500 calories a day (I figure I can eat 1750 at goal weight and maintain) and exercising, now limiting junk food and exercising. Are my strategies just too unrealistic for long-term success? Is there some good way to think positively that will help me be consistent?
Thanks for any advice.
