drmcdougaller's Journal, 28 January 2008

I haven't been 164 for a year! January 1st I was so unhopeful that I could ever lose 8 pounds. Like no way, it would be too hard and impossible because I couldn't even remember the last time I had lost 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 pounds! Not eating any desserts is definintely a mindset. I made the decision not to eat those foods and so I don't even think about considering it. Once you start thinking about it and considering it, then it is the slippery slope downward and after every meal my poor brain struggles with the decision, should I or shouldn't I? If you ask the question, it is all over because I have given in every time. I offer myself a low fat alternative, something that satisfies but doesn't make me want more, more, more. Like Cuties or pudding, I can't have them because I want more and more. I would have cookies, candy and or ice cream every day! Just by cutting those out, I am slowly losing. Of course, I can't eat unlimited calories in other areas.
164.0 lb Lost so far: 6.0 lb.    Still to go: 39.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

By just not eating junk food makes a big difference. I cannot believe how the weight is coming off so fast. I would have wasted a lot of money on a paid diet program to loose what I did in just one week. Keep it up. And when you do crave snacks, just think about your goal and your health. Your body will love you for this!
