I’m currently a lump of chocolate and cheese, but once the new year hits, I’m determined to make 2026 the year I finally get back to a healthy weight (I’ve lost about 20 pounds, with about 80-100 to go). I’m pretty good about exercising regularly, but, as they say, abs are made in the kitchen. Those who have successfully lost weight, is there anything you particularly recommend for maintaining a calorie deficit to lose the weight, and then avoiding gaining it back later on?

    It’s easier to use your will power to not buy snacks at the grocery store than it is to not eat them once they are at your home.

    Also it’s probably better to not start with tossing all snacks out altogether, as your willpower can only take you so far. Can be easier to switch to healthier snacks, then start leaving them out once you figure how to eat well enough on meal times
