I guess it depends on who you talk to!

For me, it is about staying out of denial and keep getting on the scale. My old behavior was to stop caring and the eventual regain happened. I am not allowing it to happen this time.
I had to literally change the way I eat permanently and never go back to the old way. Been there and done that!
I had to get that its not about being on a diet when we eat this way....its the way I will eat for the rest of my life. WOE/WOL kind of thing.

It becomes about you....what are you willing to do to make sure that you don't regain? How will you eat? What will you eat? How committed are you to keep it?


As soon as i started the "diet" ( lifestyle change ) that was the old way of eating out the window for life - for 3 years i have changed my life style and attitude. I have always lost and kept it off. I can not even eat a slice of bread because my brain wont allow me to . i dont even want to . even on a birthday when i have a bit of cake or at new year when i have a slice of short bread ifeel as if i should not and i just dont feel right. I will not go back to the old way - its not me its not the way i eat live or think anymore - i love myself i love the attention and i love being healthy and fit
