Yes, the trick is to find something that helps you make a permanent change. Which does mean learning about nutrition, and finding a healthy balance point of food and exercise. And it does mean learning to eat less, permanently, and probably also drink less (halfway through my time doing WLR, during which I lost three stone, I switched from drinking pints to drinking halves, and I haven't gone back), and to try to break the links between eating and emotions.
I've mostly kept the weight off, although I've put about half a stone on in the last six months or so because I got out of the habit of exercising. I'm now walking 3.5 miles home several days a week and making a conscious effort not to scarf cheese when I get there, which I hope will be enough to help me lose that over the next couple of months...
