Hi Beverly,

Gratefully, I am not a yo yo dieter. I do have problems with my weight. I have planted a strong mindset in my mind that I have to leave my bad lifestyle and start a healthy one so I can succeed in my diet.

I have always believe strongly that you should not "diet" but make healthy lifestyle choices. Great post, thanks for putting this great content out there! .-= Angela´s last blog ..The Road To Success Is Not Straight =-.

Thanks Cathy. Yo-Yo dieters are everywhere.If people would just be active and eat correctly and monitor themselves, things like weight would stay under control.

Hi Beverly,
Thanks so much for a great post. When I was younger “crash diets” were the way to go. Usually I only needed to loose a few pounds and this worked. My bad habits eventually caught up to me. We understand so much more now about food and our bodies and there is no excuse. But some people need more help. The ones that continue to struggle need to understand why they hold onto their unhealthy habits and explore how they can make those important changes. You are right, we need to focus on lifestyle changes and not diets.

I have some very close family members and several clients who have yo-yo dieted all their lives, and now the struggle to lose the weight is near impossible. They have slowed down their metabolism so much from repetative caloric restriction, and of course their energy levels and mental state suffer at the same time.

Teaching people about long-term sustainable lifestyle changes is such an important message to spread! Thank you, Beverly!
