I am now looking at "dieting" as a new way of life- eating healthy always and just increase or decrease the amount of calories consumed based on the desired results. Substitute fruit for ice cream etc and very occasionally allow yourself some cheat days. some people have a hard time with cheat days because they end up on a downward spiral of cheat day after cheat day- it all depends on how committed you are to a new way of eating. You have to make how you eat a part of your life- that way when crazy stuff happens at least you will still eat the same- I know I got diagnosed with Lung Cancer last march and I ate everything in site because my doctors didn't want me to lose weight- obviously I went straight for the carbs, and i gained 30 pounds. I still have stuff happening in my life- scary stuff- but have decided that I am going to be the healthiest me I can be regardless of what is going on in my life. This has just been my experience, and is certainly not the end all be all in dieting advice, but I have noticed from personal experience a "DIET" is only temporary the way most of us use it, and as soon as we hit our goal we go back to eating the same stuff that got us on a "DIET" in the first place. I finally realized that this has to be a new way of life and that as long as I am eating a healthy balanced diet with a limited amount of carbs that I can control my weight not by changing the foods I eat but by adjusting my calorie intake up or down. I still allow myself a cheat day or 2 to eat my forbidden foods lice ice cream or cookies, etc, but I eat them is much smaller amounts and space them out and only allow at most 2 per week.
