I know these diets are supposed to be a permanent life change... not just a short term weight loss fix. And absolutely - a lot of things have changed for me in a way that is not just a 12 week whirlwind romance relationship with change. I have actually started to want to go to the gym and zumba and stuff without jumping at any excuse not to. I definitely trust that it makes me feel good... and that is a big attitudinal shift. I am also much more aware of portion sizes and daily calorie intake amounts, even if I don't always stick to it. But as for the program being a permanent way of life... not likely. I am afraid that I am still in the mindset of wanting to dive headfirst into a cheesecake as soon as the 12 weeks are up. And I am still in the unfortunate mindset of "making the most of it" between rounds of the program.
Thus, I have put on 2 kg between each round of the program. So I lost 8, put on 2, lost 5, put on 1.5... meaning I sit here 9.5 kg lighter - but having done the hard yards to lose 13kg! Bugger!So I am going to give it another red hot shot. I am not really sure that I want to... not really sure where I am going to dig out the motivation... and not really sure that my love affair with chocolate that has blossomed in the last few weeks is really ready for the graveyard.
I'm giving up so much at the moment - packing up my house, giving away my things, leaving my ex-lover behind, leaving my job, leaving friends and family, leaving my routines and my parks and my cafes and my whole relatively happy little lifestyle... I seriously have to break up with my mate freddo too??
Sheesh

Successful people fall just as often as the unsuccessful; the only difference is that successful people learn from their mistakes, get back on their feet, and resolutely march toward their goals.
