After spending half my life obese, I lost 30% of my body weight, and have kept it off for 20 years. I did this without relying on willpower or self-deprivation, and while still eating the foods I love. (Including junk food and fast food.)
I explain how to do this in my book The Weight Loss Habit: The No BS, No Gimmick, (Sort Of) Easy Way to Lose Weight and Keep It Off Forever, as well as in quite a few articles on the site.
