Stop Dieting and Start Living-Isn't that what WW's keeps telling us?


Click HEREto read a great sparkpeople article about dieting vs lifestyle changes. No really, READ THIS ONE! This is a really great read. This writer is SO right!

Here are a few sneak peeks:

The basic difference between a diet mentality and a lifestyle mentality is simply a matter of perspective.

A diet is all about numbers
A lifestyle change is all about you.

The diet mentality assumes that reaching a certain weight is the key to finding happiness and solving other problems.

The lifestyle approach assumes that being overweight is usually the result of other problems, not the cause.


Going on a diet involves an external and temporary change in eating technique.

Making a lifestyle change involves an internal and permanent change in your relationship with food, eating, and physical activity.
