This is the second part of the study of attitudes that would disturb weight loss attempts. In the first part of the study the attitudes causing difficulties in weight loss were searched in interviews with former dieters. These results have been published earlier. All together 15 attitude related factors that disturb the weight loss efforts were found.  In this second part of the study it was studied what would happen to these found difficult attitudes as the successful weight loss period gets going. The dieters (N=43) were discussed both before and after the dieting period of eight weeks of very low calorie diet and the existence of these difficulties was analyzed during the discussion. As a result the amount of these disturbing factors decreased in number as the weight loss happened. The total amount of disturbing attitude- related factors in this group was 222 at the beginning and 82 at the end of the successful weight loss period. Only basic personal encouragement was given during the weight loss period as a mental support. No psychological intervention was made.  Conclusion  These findings support the “Just do it”-approach when it comes to weight loss. Difficulties felt in the beginning of the diet disappeared or decreased in number along with the success in dieting. There can be found difficulties at the starting point of the dieting, their existence can be analyzed but they do not need immediate attention for the dieting period to be successful.
