The Psychology of Lifestyle Change

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

There’s some good advice in here about designing a structure to support lifestyle change, such as joining Weight Watchers. Then again, while the psychologists have analyzed what and how people fail or succeed in doing so, I’m waiting to read studies that prospectively get folks to have long term success in making lifestyle change. For many of us, it was what we did over the years that make it easy to sustain. Yet for others, it may be that what we did over the years burnt us out and turned us away from healthful living. I’m just a bit skeptical, that’s all.
