A "Must-Read" Article

I stumbled across the website of Leigh Peele (http://www.leighpeele.com/) and have been hooked on her posts recently.

The particular article I claim as a "must read" is titled "A Lesson In The Art Of Maintenance", and does not only target those who are trying to maintain weight, but also to those who are actively trying to lose. Bottom line: We must understand maintenance, because the plan is for all of us to all reach that point -- And when we get there, we want to STAY there. :)


The introduction:

"You may think your life is a never ending fat loss journey. The truth is, if you understand maintenance, fat loss should be a simple and short journey. Yes, you read that correctly. If you can learn how to nail maintenance, you will learn how to nail fat loss. Intrigued? I bet you are."


Since I did not write this article, I will not copy/paste. You can (and I recommend that you do) read the rest of the article here: http://www.leighpeele.com/a-lesson-in-the-art-of-maintenance#more-6636

Just something to think about. :)

    Thanks for the link, I found that an extremely encouraging article; while I'm still a long way from my goal, it helps a lot to think that if I can determine to get it right, this is the last time I'll ever have to eat this little. :)

    You can do it! :drinker:
