How to NOT gain weight back?
Well, I just wonder what people mean by "changing your eating habits". I just wonder what foods people try to avoid, i think I know but I just wanted people to tell me some tricks to keeping the weight off.
Thanks for your input!
There's really no reason not to drin****il right before you eat, though.

So if I just stick to the way I eat now, low carbs (only good carbs), no junk food, no fried foods, lean proteins, no grazing, no sugar, watch my portions.....I should be ok and not regain weight.
If I begin to eat white carbs, snack more often, eat fatty or sugary foods and graze between meals then I expose myself to regain.
That is what I am understanding. Right?
Is an "everything in moderation" a realist attitude? Like, can I eat pasta on a rare occasion? Not 2 times a week, but maybe once a month? Or pizza, can I have a piece every now and then just not every Friday? If I can't I can't and I will just live with it, I have for almost 4 months. But if we can learn to moderate those foods is it possible to do that and keep the weight off?
Eating stuff like pasta or pizza once in a while would be fine. Some people find that when they try to eat some things in moderation, they can't do it. It just leads them in to eating more and more of things. Like, I can eat one cookie, or half a blueberry muffin, or something like that. However, I have found that I cannot eat things like crackers and chips in moderation. Once I eat a few, I just keep on eating. I finally decided I could not buy crackers anymore because it was too hard for me to have them in the house and not eat them. If they were here, I'd eat them.
Anyway, it's certainly possible to keep the weight off if you eat "treats" in moderation.
