Compulsive overeating is a type of behavioral addiction meaning that someone can become preoccupied with a behavior (such as eating, or gambling, or shopping) that triggers fulfillment.

Fitness is a journey. If your goal is weight loss and you met your goal, you probably know that it is way too easy to slip into old habits. Here are some tips to keep the weight off and to maintain those healthy habits! Maintain Your Habits Success comes from doing the same things every day which requires discipline and planning.
