The Diet Doc: Managing weight loss

This short series was prompted by the newly-circulated research indicating that over half of us in the United States will be obese by 2030.

This is staggering when you consider how slowly change typically occurs in nature. Less than 10 percent of America was obese 30 years ago. We need to adapt or we're going to die. My last article focused on creating a plan by outlining the top 10 traits of successful dieters.

I like to define weight-loss success as reaching a goal and being able to manage and maintain it.

What? I can't eat all the ice cream I want once I lose this weight?

If you add a teensie-weensie phrase to that sentence, ice cream can stay. I can and I do eat all the ice cream I can while making sure I don't gain weight.

It's about management.

Manage your weight, your health, and your physique by thinking through behaviors regarding food. It is critical to enjoy real food while dieting, so work in those indulgences. Whether it takes less frequency or quantity, it's good practice for long-term maintenance.

I read of an author who says he writes the last line of his book first. He also writes the last line of each chapter before he writes the actual chapter. Genius.

He has a point he wants to make but he knows he can ramble off point, so if he builds a guidepost he can walk straight toward.

Imagine that you are Jimmy Stewart for a moment. Your guardian angel is flying you through your life past tense. How would you want to have lived your life? Sick, overweight, in pain, dysfunctional? NO!
