问题 Joan:
    That is, goals that are small, manageable, achievable, realistic and tangible. Too many people judge whether they’re overweight by those depressing insurance-company tables listing" ideal"or"healthy"body weights based on low mortality rates. But such tables represent only the weights of people who applied for life insurance and lived the longest. They do not accurately measure the effects of excess body fat on sickness or longevity for the entire population. Nor do they tell you your healthiest weight.
Kate:
    To reduce, you must combine the three key elements of long-term weight control. First, follow a nutritionally balanced, healthful eating plan. Increase the fiber in your diet and cut your fat intake to 25 to 30 grams per day. If you’ve selective about the food you choose, you can eat three meals a day and up to three low-fat snacks.
    One explanation for this quick impact is that you are what you eat. It’s not just the pounds of excess body fat that cause all the trouble. It’s the high-fat calories that you consume every day to maintain those extra pounds. As soon as you cut out those additional high-fat calories, you’ll be healthier and happier.
Jean :
    Here’s the tough part. After trimming down, easy-does-it dieters spend at least six months adapting to their new weight. This gives the body time to adjust to the changes it has undergone in diet, exercise and life-style.
    Don’t get caught in the trap of all-or-nothing thinking. An occasional lapse is normal. We recommend what we call the "R-K-0"system. Each day that you follow a program of low fat diet and exercise is an "R"day of "regularly reducing. "Days when you want to just hold steady—eat a bit more, exercise slightly less—are "K"days, for"keeping it off. "Days when you splurge are"0"days, for"off".
    At the end of each day, mark an R, K or O on your calendar. The winning formula is to have your K days, and your K days outnumber your O days.
Rose:
    Of the 34 million American adults who are classified as overweight, about two million should lose 100 or more pounds. These people obviously need to lose more than ten percent of their body weight; they will require medical supervision, rapid weight loss and the use of special portion-controlled foods.
    In most cases, however, people who are overweight can start an easy-does-it plan. Then, after they’ve maintained their new, slimmer bodies for six months, they can consider a second cycle.
    How do you decide whether you’ve lost enough weight? Feeling good is the first sign. Health-risk factors are an even better indicator. Before you go on an easy-does-it weight-loss program, have your doctor measure your cholesterol, body fat and blood pressure. Then check with your physician at the beginning of the six-month maintenance stage. After that, you can move forward on your own.
Jone:
    The easy-does-it diet is not so much a diet as an approach to weight loss and life-style. You don’t have to hit a magic number on your scale. You can achieve a healthy weight safely and permanently—if you just remember:easy does it.
