Week 2
May 15, 2007 by Eliza Devroe
So, I did great on my diet all week. Until Friday. The weekend is the hardest for me. And then last night I figured I ruined it already, so I might as well eat. The result? Down a pound from last week. Better a little loss than nothing at all I guess. What is the hardest time for you to stay on a diet and how do you overcome this?
To-date: 32lbs
You really need to reread Five Questions for Successful Dieters. Look at all of the posts, not just mine, to see what others have done.
For me, it is all about setting specific goals. Once I know what my goal is, I don’t want to ruin it by eating.
You don’t give yourself enough credit and seem to give up a little too easily. You’ve got to be tenacious and enforce your will power in a positive direction. I didn’t like getting up at 6:30/7am all week to go to the gym but I made myself do it for a month and after that I wanted to go.
Force yourself to do what you think you don’t want to do, your attitude will change for the better after time, believe me. I still feel like shit because I’m not going to the gym and I haven’t gone for almost two months. Maybe someone should kick my ass.
