Most of what we do is automatic behavior.

So what we have to do is go from the automatic behavior that's keeping us overweight to an automatic behavior that's keeping us at a lower weight.

And this is actually verified in the National Weight Control Registry.

These aren't miserable people that are keeping the weight off.

They're happy people.

They work at it.

They're not saying, oh, it's a piece of cake.

But they aren't saying, like, I'm miserable every day.

I'm just trying to get through another day.

That doesn't work.

It doesn't...

the way I see it now, I think it's hard in the short run until you develop these new habits and routines.

Then I think it becomes easier.

Absolutely.

I don't think the people in the National Weight Control that succeeded, I don't think they're genetically different or physiologically different.

I think for some reason,

they were able to stick to the behavior changes that we know work.

And so I think we can help more and more people do that.

I totally believe that it's possible for people to lose weight and keep it off.

And I think people in the National Weight Control Registry aren't different from anybody else except, as you said before, the stick-to-it-ness.
