How Do I Keep The Weight Off Once I've Finished RenuU?

I am asked this question over and over. RenuU does have a Phase IV which is maintenance that should be followed (will list this below). Also, exercise should be added to your regimen. Personally I am doing various aerobic work outs, 30-45 minutes each session (StairMaster, Elliptical, Jogging) along with circuit weight training. My goal is 4-6 days a week, yes really! I know that adding in exercise is the ONLY WAY to maintain so that I don't have to keep going through the program. Not only will this help maintain my weight, but the added benefits to my heart, cholesterol levels and bone mass is greatly increased! I have lost 3 of the 5 pounds I put on over the holidays and my jeans are fitting better in the thigh! YIPPEE!
