How long does behavioral therapy for weight loss last?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Need to continue: Until changes in behavior becomes a habit. There is a quote i like "thoughts lead to purpose, purpose becomes actions, actions form habits, habits decide character and character fixes our destiny".

Depends: As long as it takes to achieve the desired behavioral change that can be self maintained. In my experience there is a 6 weeks minimum.
