Good Article. I don't read Woo because I find her ranting disturbing but this article is free of rants and, from my experience, spot on. I log my food every day paying attention mostly to my carb count. I've given up daily weighing or even weekly weighing because it does lead to pointless emotional ups and downs for me. I've been telling myself that as long as my clothing still fits then I'm doing OK. I track my walking for the same reason. Tracking it serves as a motivation for me to go out and walk even on those days that I am feeling lazy. Amazing, here I am agreeing with Woo without wishing she would not be so insulting to others. It is possible to be hard hitting and honest without getting personally insulting. She's done it well here, IMHO.

I am one of those people who finds maintenance easy. I attribute it to my absolute belief that it is essential for my continued health. Why choose sickness when by simply eating the right foods you can be healthy?
