More body talk

[sylvari]

There is a commercial on some channel or another in which someone says "I wake up every morning on a diet and go to bed every night a failure"

My god those could have been my words.Part of me understands that feeling all too well. The daily sense of failure that can sometimes haunt anyone who struggles every day with their weight. There is this switch in my head that goes off and on - first thing in the am it's all "I will be good today" but when it comes time to choose the switch goes off and it's "Grab something quick and filling" or "Fuck you world I am going to stuff myself because I am angry/hurt/tired/sad/stressed" .

No more diets, no more food watching, just calories in and calories out with a focus on mostly good for me food.

We shall see. After all it's not failure if you keep trying. Right?

Yea I really can't ever get into diet mode myself, and i hate setting goals because well, as you said.. if you don't set them, you can't fail yourself. (another reason I don't do new years resolutions, bleh)

I just try and make good decisions when choosing what to eat. Or when choosing to go work out, or even just for a walk. Every little bit does help. take steps instead of escalator/elevator, Park further from the mall or grocery store. And so on.

And if I want to be lazy some time, I do it. If I want those cookies, I eat them.
