• They limited their calorie intake to approximately 1 400 calories a day.
• They restricted fat to approximately 24% of calories.
• They started the day with breakfast.
• They ate a wide variety of foods and did not follow fad diets.
• They did regular exercise, with walking being the activity of choice.
• They kept a food journal to help them stay on the course.
• They weighed themselves regularly.

Successful participants added that adopting a healthier lifestyle and maintaining their weight loss became easier over time.
