How long it lasts: For the rest of your life. What you?ll eat: Anything you want, as long as you remain at your target weight. What will happen: You will maintain your weight and all the health benefits you earned by following Phases 1 and 2 For $5/week you can have access to food plans and recipes etc, and to a nutritionist and to a community, public or private journal etc. I did this just to increase my committment, but I didn't sign up for any of the weekly add-ons! Include 30 minutes of exercise most days (walking works). Good luck.
