13 June 2012

So today I had a revelation. It wasn't ground shattering thing (or at least I don't think so), nor was it the first day of my most recent weight loss plan. But perhaps it's all connected? I mean I got some kind of a clarity during last 6 weeks that I was trying to loose weight. And it's working I might add - -6kg in 6 weeks - not to shabby for me :)
Anyway, let's go back to my revelation - I will never stop being on a diet. I have always been the sort of person who thinks that I have to try really hard and then once it's over, I can relax a bit. So guess what - it's not going to happen! And it sucks, and I hate it but... I have to start accepting it.
Just think of it this way - if I had a limp, no matter how far I would go and how successful I was at walking, I would still have a limp. Now, thank God, I'm healthy and I don't have a limp or anything else. But I also don't have the ability to stop eating. I don't know when I'm full, or I choose to ignore it, or I just like food too much. So instead of trying to walk extra mile (although in my case that's actually a good idea), I should start finding a way to cope with it.
The only thing I can think of is to make sure the food I'm eating is healthy and good for me. If I'm doomed (so to say) to eat more that I probably should, at least I'll eat things that won't make me big. And it's not a diet really, I'll just have to adopt this way of thinking.
Lately one of the things helping me a lot was a full tracking of what I eat. In my six weeks I only got positive net calories 2-3 times. And it wasn't even hard!. But all 2-3 times happened when I didn't have access to my PC and couldn't do the counting. So I really can't be sure how much I eat.. Again - it sucks, but I'm so lucky in so many other ways I really can't complain :)
So the revelation - I have to mind what and how much I eat, always! Not for a month or 2, but for the lifetime. And I have to just deal with it!
