Long-term weight loss, willpower, and acceptance

> Despite extensive research on my part, I was unable to find a study that suggests dieting becomes easier with time, or that the body’s ‘set weight’ can ever be reset lower. It’s like riding an escalator, in that the only way is up. The best way to ‘fix’ obesity is to never become obese in the first place.

Fat cell memory must be targeted for the weight loss to stick.

Fifty-three weeks in so far [1] of losing a tenth of a pound a week. Laughably slow but ruthlessly steady. Have never had to skip too often, but weigh often; it's been the most consistent of anything else (so far).
