Well done Natasha! Fantastic weight loss, To be honest, everyone says that about LL - that you put the weight back on. But I've also put the weight back on on every single diet I've ever been on, so I don't see why this is special, other than it seems to scare people! I'm not going to tell anyone for a while because I don't want to deal with their issues. I've got enough of my own
I've done a lot of thinking today about why I want to give this another go, and re reading my posts, I think I've been too negative about it, seeing this as a self-imposed punishment for eating too much and failing at other diets.
I think I need to turn my thinking around. I'm choosing to do this diet. I could try any one of the thousands of other diets about, or simply not diet at all, but I deserve to be comfortable with myself, and this is a quick, if not painless, way of achieving this. Nothing else has worked, and the more diets etc. I try, the more mucked up my thinking about food seems to get, till I can't tell what's what. So I am giving myself a break. I'm taking myself away from food and from intensive exercise for a while to reset my thinking about food. I'm going to use an extreme diet to try and learn moderation and make a better connection between my mind and body.
I hope it works, but if nothing else, at least I feel more positive about starting this journey tomorrow.
