Briefly list the habits of individuals who have lost weight and have been able to keep it off for at least five years
What will be an ideal response?

Those who kept the weight off typically continued to limit fatty foods and to monitor caloric intake each day; to weigh themselves regularly; to eat up to five small meals daily, including breakfast, each day; and to maintain high levels of physical activity (the equivalent of walking four miles each day).
