Lack of motivation

[senjuro]

Often, the diet that gets you down to your desired weight is the diet that will help you easily maintain that weight. Weight loss is achieved by lowering your intake of energy so you use up more energy than you take in. When losing weight, you'll eventually reach a point where you will stop losing unless the amount of energy intake decreases or the amount of energy used through exercise increases.

Changing your diet when you reach your target weight is merely an aesthetic change and it's your energy intake that makes the biggest difference. So you're both right. Yay, the best kind of discussion! ^_^
