Absolutely! The only person you need to make happy is yourself, sweety. Do this for YOU, not anyone else. It has been my experience, that the first 2 weeks of dieting can be kinda rollercoasterish as far as the feelings go. One day I'll be mad at the world the next I'll be a happy popcorn. After 2 weeks, and you and your body start getting used to the new routine, it's not so rollsercoasterish!
