He states, .. "Over the years I have observed that many of my patients move through these emotions during their weight loss process. Many get stuck in one particular phase or another, too. However, when you are able to acknowledge that these stages exist and are able to work through them, that is when you have the highest chance for lifelong success. Many of us have fought hard to IGNORE these emotions, thinking they will disappear when we reach our target weight. They don't and it's truly harmful to think they ever will. There can be no true success without that admission."
