The 99.99 percent of dieters who regain all the weight they lost
would tend to disagree with you.

I think a longterm 10% change in calories qualifies as a lifestyle
change.

Ha ... Now I know you're lying; they wont take checks from me or most
other customers, only credit cards.

The only reason they accept checks from you is because you are a
member of their prefered customer club.

Besides which, UPS delivered all my toys yesterday.
I love most of the ones you recomended, although I still don't agree
with your obsession with all the enlargers ...

But, that isn't the case. First, a 10% reduction in bodyfat as a result of
liposuction would cause less than a 10% reduction in maintenance calories.
From, say, about 3000 calories, to about 2800 calories. Second, no one said
you have to account for this with calorie reduction only. A couple hundred
extra calories burned would do, or 100 less calories and 100 extra calories
burned, or etc etc etc. Any such combination does not fit my definition of
"lifestyle change". Your definition, is, of course, your business.

Good point.

They have many uses. Try to be more imaginative.

What does and does not constitute a "lifestyle change"? And how long
must it last to constitute that? How much difference is there,
really, between someone who changes things for a month, gets results,
and gradually gravitates back to the way things were, and someone who
does it for two years before regressing?

Exactly. As I've been pointing out, the definition of "lifestyle change" is
extremely individual. There is no one answer.

Yes. Some answers are better than others, but even then, it's all a
matter of context.

The difference appears, in the scenario you present John, the length
of time between the two respective "regressions"!!

Or is that somewhat too simplistic?

Have a great weekend - you know I will!!

It occurs to me that a lifestyle change is just that. The term does
not infer any degree of limits of time, and certainly not a lifetime
change.

Surely most people are adapting their lifestyles, to some degree,
almost throughout the entirety of their three score and ten. Those
unfortunates with un-co-operative metabolisms, are doomed to obesity
or a lifetime of yo-yo dieting!!

Have a great weekend - you know I will!! ;o)
