[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2094275, member: 480869"] Again I agree with most of what you say. Long term, sustainable change is the most important and obviously has worked very well for you. We all respond differently. My more drastic changes have had a smaller overall effect despite maintaining them since diagnosis. Had I not tried the ambitious approach I’d have had even smaller results. For me the results also help toward motivation in continuing the new ways. It just sounds a little like if you don’t think at the outset you can do it long term don’t bother trying in the first place. I prefer the give it a go and see how it works for you and then iron out the issues as you go approach. Especially with something radically different and new. Who knows how a person will respond til they try. In just a year on here I’ve seen many a person think change/improvement in their situation is for them is impossible, only to try something new and be amazed that it wasn’t as difficult as they expected. Not all have been sudden, drastic or big changes either. Sometimes it’s been more moderate or a step at a time to make it sustainable. [/QUOTE]
