An osteopath, Dr. Lamont Tyler is board-certified in both family medicine and urgent care medicine, and serves as medical director of OSF St. Joseph Medical Center in Bloomington, Illinois. Dr. Lamont Tyler regularly discusses common health concerns on the local Doc Talk radio show, such as reaching and maintaining a healthy weight.
Many people view dieting as a temporary approach to losing weight. They might severely cut calories and restrict their eating in an attempt to reach their goal weight. While this approach results in weight loss, it is not the healthiest way to shed pounds. Additionally, if a person doesn’t make long-term changes in their habits and approach to eating, the weight lost is likely to creep back on. In order to maximize the chances of long-term success in maintaining a healthy weight, it’s important to plan ahead. There will always be events where unhealthy food might be plentiful. People should consider how they approach these events. It might be bringing a healthy dish that they will feel comfortable eating, for example. Additionally, individuals should consider their goals when going out to eat at a restaurant, and focus on choosing a meal they will feel good about later. Those who commit to a healthier lifestyle and don’t take a temporary approach to weight loss, as is common with dieting, will develop eating habits that are both enjoyable and in line with long-term goals.
