Losing Weight is One Thing, Keeping It Off is Another

If you’re like most people who have dieted, your success is hard to maintain long term.

If you’ve managed to lose weight and keep it off, congratulations, you are a rare breed of person. Only about 20% of Americans who lose weight can keep it off long-term. This is not for you.

The problem:

45 million Americans go on a diet each year

The average adult will try 126 different diets during their life.

Women give up diets after an average of five weeks, two days, and 43 minutes.

In an analysis of twenty-nine long-term weight loss studies, more than half of the lost weight was regained within two years, and by five years more than 80% of lost weight was regained.

Here are some of the false promises you’ll often see in weight loss ads:

Lose weight without dieting or exercising. (You won’t.)

You don’t have to watch what you eat to lose weight. (You do.)

If you use this product, you’ll lose weight permanently. (Wrong.)

To lose weight, all you have to do is take this pill. (Not true.)

You can lose 30 pounds in 30 days. (Nope.)

This product works for everyone. (It doesn’t.)

Lose weight with this patch or cream. (You can’t.)

Even if these claims were true, they don’t promise maintenance.

Before I go any further, why should you keep listening to me?

My name is Gail Gabbert. I am a psychotherapist who specializes in mental health and addiction and just like you, I tried my fair share of weight loss programs.

I have seen good results with Weight Watchers on two separate occasions.

However, like most people, I regained the weight I had lost.

During the COVID pandemic, I benefited from social restrictions and found it easier to maintain a diet without easy access to restaurants. Several members of my family chose to participate in the goal of losing the “Family 50”.

We lost well over fifty pounds—in fact, nearly one hundred pounds. In celebration, we treated ourselves to a beach vacation. Unfortunately, that was the beginning of a gradual weight gain.

Then it occurred to me that I do have specific knowledge related to the maintenance of weight loss.

I have helped thousands of mental health clients make changes in their lives for over 30 years. And, I have helped thousands of opioid addicts achieve drug abstinence and maintain recovery for over 15 years.

If I can help them, I can use the same tools to address obesity.

I want to share my findings to help you maintain your weight loss.

After my alarm at having gained nine pounds, I again reached out to them, and others, for social support and

That is why, I created
