Question from the community: 

Hey, this is Rick Taylar. Every week I answer a question from a listener with the wish that it will help others too.

Here’s a question I got from Rachel!

“Hi! I’m Rachel from the United States. I’ve been on and off the weight loss wagon for years—start strong on Monday, fall off by Thursday. I know what to do, I’ve done it before, but lately I just can’t seem to stay committed mentally. I want to lose the weight and feel like myself again, but something in my head always pulls me back. How do I mentally commit to losing weight—for real this time?”
