I can't speak for everyone, but I have decided to adopt a healthy lifestyle. I quite like things the way they are. I don't miss eating junk food, etc... I often find myself in a severe calorie deficit and having to force myself to eat something in order to meet my calorie requirements.0

After I am done losing my fat, I plan to try getting just generally more fit. I'll eat lots of protein and concentrate a little more on strength (I only do strength a couple times a week right now).
Nice link, thanks for sharing.0 -

So after you get to a certain size - how do you maintain it? I am reading that when I am my goal weight I naturally burn 1500 calories a day. Even if I ran 30min a day (to burn 200 cals) that is still only 1700 I can eat without gaining weight! Is that really the only way to keep the weight off once you reach your goal? It almost seems like it isn't worth it to lose weight if I can't enjoy eating ever!
Build up muscle. Your metabolism increases, and you can eat more, plus you're much stronger, and in much better shape. Win-Win.0
