No I mean unconcious.
There are 4 stages to learning!
The first is unconcious incompetence.
That was when I was big, in denial I was big, didn't see it as any issue, didn't really understand how or why I need to lose weight.
Then I became conciously incompetent.
That was when I was big and I knew I was big, I chose not to be slim because it wasn't worth the effort to me.
Then I finally found concious competence.
That is when I lost weight with Cambridge, I did it by the book, conciously lost the weight and then for 6 months I maintained the weight by conciously watching what I ate (using tools like WLR etc).
Then finally nirvana for me which is unconcious competence.
I can now keep weight off and maintain without having to count calories and be anal about what I eat, I have found the natural ability to eat when I need to and to eat the right stuff most of the time.
As I have said before to reach unconcious competence I had to deal with the true reasons behind my weight gain, accept that being overweight was an effect from my life and not the cause of my life. Once I dealt with that stuff I suddenly found it much much easier to keep the weight off.
