    1. Eat in a way that you can do daily (who cares if it's paleo, vegan, moderate, etc.), but ensuring you get in your daily macro/micro nutrients with a sustainable and reasonable calorie deficit.

    2. Do some physical activity that you can sustain for life.

    3. Be CONSISTENT.

    4. Consider paying me lots of money to kick your *kitten* if you can't follow above.

    People can't accept truth.
    Pure, undiluted truth is poison to most dolts waddling around.

    Dumb question but can you further explain macro vs. micro nutrients? I see a lot of people throwing those terms around on here and I am not convinced they know what they mean... (I know I don't)

    Macro nutrients are protein, fat, carbohydrates and alcohol. Micronutrients are vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, antioxidants and everything else you get out of food.

    That's such a refreshing change to hear you are in it for others. So many just want to make that almighty dollar and do not have compassion for their clients.

    2. Do some physical activity that you can sustain for life.

    IMO, ^^^ THIS is the big one. Unless you plan on running for the rest of your life, dont take up running. If you are knocking yourself out at the gym and then plan when you get to your goal to let your membership lapse, dont join. If you only bought a bike so you could burn some calories but figure you can let one of your relatives have it when you are done, dont buy the bike. Find some exercise that you will at least NOT mind doing for the rest of your life or you may not have much chance of keeping the weight off.

    I disagree. People grow to love running, biking, going to the gym as they get fitter and progress with whatever activity it is. If they were voluntarily sedentary and they only considered activities that they could see themselves doing for the rest of their lives, they might still be sitting on the couch. You have to try things out and give them a fair shake, and that often means forcing yourself to do something you don't like right away.
