Is It Impossible To Keep The Weight Off?
If long-term weight loss were impossible, would it even be worth trying to lose weight?
Well, bad news. A report that hit headlines recently suggests that permanent weight loss is near impossible. Decades of clinical research, public health initiatives and personal attempts at diet and exercise have yielded a net sum of zero. Sure, people lose weight all the time; that’s pretty easy to do — but they can’t keep it off.
