I have lost large amounts of weight twice in my life. Both of those times I fell right back into bad habits once I had lost enought to say "just one won't hurt." This time just feels different. I am down 15 lbs from the summer. I don't feel deprived. I don't long for my Dr. Pepper. I don't miss the dairy products. I don't crave the fast food. Best of all, my skin looks better, my guts aren't in a knot all the time, I am sleeping better and the numbers show my health is improving.
I've developed good habits and now they are second nature. I take my lunch to work every day. I cook meals from scratch as much as possible. I shop for groceries differently. But I have reconciled myself to the fact that I may not ever lose all of this weight and I am OK with that. In fact, I feel great about that. I just feel GOOD. That's not something I could say for a long time.
