I lost over 100 pounds and have kept it off for about 2 years. The regimen includes weekly "fat farm" meetings that remind you that you can never quit or it will all come back. Some of the other members of the group insist on tasty meals made with "real" ingredients. They are all fat. Forget delicious. My own approach in to limit the things I love to once or twice a year; in limited quantities only. Of course, your mileage may vary.
