Read along with the original article(s) here: https://racheltrotta.com/fitness/from-weight-loss-to-maintenance/ Quotes to ponder: "Monitoring has an almost uncanny power. It doesn’t require change, but it often leads to change, because people who keep close track of just about anything tend to do a better job of managing it." "By being observant of your habits and shifting daily patterns where needed, you’ll be surprised to find that results show up just as easily as ever." "It’s often disappointing that once you lose weight you have to maintain some level of focus and work to keep it off. Wouldn’t it be much more fair if the weight just stayed off after all your hard work?"
