Thanks guys.xxx
 
I think the main thing is that you must keep making the decision to stick to your diet on a daily, and sometimes even hourly basis. It's not easy, but it is very worth it in the end.
 
Try to keep a positive mind and take it day at a time, once you start to see the weight come off that will be a big incentive to carry on, as for the first few days just try to keep busy, maybe a good book in the evening. Keep reminding yourself why you are doing this. Good luck
 
I take every day in small chunks (well i did before i fell off the wagon and then had a baby! lol) When i feel like i'm going to slip i see if i can make it through the next hour without cheating - when you tell yourself you have a whole day to get through without eating it can seem quite daunting, but when you say i only have to get through the next 58 minutes it 'seems' a lot easier to handle. I know it all amounts to the same thing but psychologically it helps.
I also found that if i was having a REAL downer I'd get out all my slinky slim clothes and sort out what goes with what and plan what i'm going to wear when i get the weight off. Work out what size you're going to be going down to next and hang a pair of trousers in that size on the fridge.
