Every day, countless people look in the mirror and declare, “no more.”
They make a commitment to lose weight. For weeks, or even months, a rigorous diet and exercise regimen is followed. They lose weight. Friends marvel at their commitment.
Then a few months later, the weight is back on, often more than before.
How does it happen?
