Losing weight is often easier than keeping it off. Crash diets and trendy programs might help you drop pounds quickly, but experts know those clickbait tips don’t last. Today’s guest shares the key traits of people who successfully reach and maintain their weight loss goals.


Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, we’re revisiting one of our most talked-about moments with certified personal trainer, nutritionist, and bodybuilding coach Dr. Allan Bacon. Dr. Bacon breaks down the three common traits shared by people who lose weight and keep it off long term and why they work. He also explains how to shift from a restrictive approach to a goal-setting mindset, and how our ability to lose weight changes as we age. 


Dr. Allan Bacon, who holds a Doctorate in Dental Surgery from the University of Maryland. He is a certified personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine, a certified nutritionist and physique/bodybuilding coach, a USA Powerlifting coach, and has over 15 years of experience formulating for leading dietary supplement companies. His work has been featured in Muscle & Fitness, Sci-Fit, the Alan Aragon Research Review, and The Personal Trainer Development Center.
