Starling Fitness: Daily writings on Fitness, Diet, and Health

Mary has a nice entry about an article in More Magazine about two women.

• Mary’s fitness blog: a tale of two women

The way the article is presented, you either have to accept your size 12 body and eat treats or live a rigid and food-measuring lifestyle to enjoy a size 6.

Mary added that it’s not an either/or proposition. It’s possible to be at a size 6 AND occasionally enjoy treats. She quotes the findings of the National Weight Control Registry that stated that those who are able to keep the weight off use portion control, exercise and healthy food choices rather than a regime of strictly measured food.
