Flexible Restraint - oh yeah

That is what the Point Plus program is all about. Exercising moderate control over eating for lasting wt loss and a eating plan that incorporates enough structure to limit food intake and encourage wt loss and discourage the feelings of deprivation.
Dietary restraint which leads to the on again/ off again behavior of some members who monitor precisely, tally calories, and read labels talking a lot about their diet is one behavior that is not successful.
Dietary disinhibition describes the other unsuccessful behavior. This is a person that lacks control over eating. They eat rapidly, frequently ............ugh!


over eat and perceive greater hunger. No big surprise this is associated with wt gain and obesity.
Think about what you will an to include in your week that will eliminate the feeling of deprivation. Figure the points and plan to enjoy your choice knowing your are totally on program.



Planning allows you to have the comfort foods you want in your real life.

The dogs are walking with us as we train. We won't be taking them for the longer distances but they enjoy the 1-5 mile distances.
Let me know how your resolutions are working for you.
