I am still in the motivation and planning stage of starting my weight loss program.

Over the years, I have tried just about every diet there is. When I mentioned to a coworker that I was considering doing Keto again, she gleefully told me that she had read that people who stopped doing Keto gained all their weight back.

My response:

"Of course they did. That is true with ALL diets. That would be true if I ate like a normal person, but the reality is...I am not. I am addicted to sugar and carbs. When I feel depressed, I enjoy eating candy, processed foods, 64 oz of soda, baked goods, fried goods, etc. THAT is the reason I gained all of my weight back. I gained my weight back because I have no breaks. I can't stop eating. I eat ridiculous amounts. It is the single, solitary reason that I have gained all of my weight back after every attempt to be healthy."

It does not matter what diet you try. It is 100% about your mindset. Eating addiction is exactly the same as drug addiction. I will ALWAYS be an addict.

I respect that my addiction is stronger than I am. Knowing that this is the case, I take pride in all the times that I HAVE been successful. Each time I try, I am able to succeed longer and longer. Last time, I was successful for 11 months. I remember what works, the routine, and the triggers. This time might not be the last time, but each and every time I try, I bring more knowledge to the table and better chances of long term success.
