Weight Loss Plans Now Blog

Here is a “weight loss secret” that I wanted to pass on.  It has to do with the length of time that you stay on a program.

I am sure that everyone’s resolution had something about losing weight or eating healthier.   Well, researchers have found that sticking with something for 5 weeks is more likely to turn it into a habit, a lifestyle change.  During the 5-week period, there seems to be a shift from initial voluntary control to repeated habitual behavior.

So, if you can stay on a program for 5 weeks, you are more likely to continue it. 

Hope this helps.
