I look at it like there are 2 roads in front of me- One road is enjoying all the lovely cakes, muffins, chocolate, crisps and food I miss in abundance and one road is an uphill slog of self-control, planning and will power. This is why it is so much easier to pick the first road- it is SO attractive and so much less hassle and very very tempting. But remember that the 'you' at the end of road 1 is overweight, less attractive and unhealthy. Road 2 is the gorgeous new you, who can wear beautiful clothes and walk without getting out of breath, and is going to live a longer happier life.
Every food choice you make takes you closer to or further away from your goal. Draw a line and don't take the easier option that only leads to unhappiness
