Well, the control group is Atkins, which has about a ten percent rate of significant sustained weight loss after one year. :) Interestingly, she did do a controlled study with the cardiologists she worked with developing this regarding to weigh or not to weigh. The patients who weighed themselves lost half the weight of the ones who didn't. I attribute that to min-maxing--all the tricks that make weight loss LOOK better today on the scale, but actually slow it down, like fluid restriction.
I love cruises, but it would be inconvenient to be mobility limited unless you were in a wheelchair. We would generally get 3-5 miles in a day going back and forth to things not counting shore excursions. The mad dash alone from early dinner to comedy show should have been an athletic event.... ;) I love only unpacking once, so that is my plan for a whirlwind tour of Europe one of these days....

I like your pull rather than push approach.
