A short YouTube clip by Jim Katsoulis arguing that the goal should not be merely to "lose weight" but to reach a sustainable goal weight and maintain it long-term on "near autopilot." The speaker warns that focusing only on short-term weight loss promotes unsustainable strategies that lead to regain and repeated cycles, and promotes orienting decisions toward long-term maintenance.

You don't want to lose weight, you want to get to your goal weight and live the rest of your life there on near autopilot. Please remember this because if you just focus on losing weight, you're most likely to choose unsustainable strategies where you're just to end up putting the weight back on and have to repeat the cycle again. When you focus on getting to your goal weight and living the rest of your life there on near autopilot, you set yourself up for long term success.
