    Starting Another Diet

    By blogadmin | July 12, 2010

    How many times have you started a diet in your life??? I would have to say I’ve started about a million (could be a slight exaggeration, but probably not much)…….next question – how many have worked?????
    Is tomorrow the day I start another, or is it today, or do I wait till that party in 2 weeks???
    The reality is, if you are waiting to start another diet, then when you have finished said diet, you will probably head back on up the scales.
    Why is it I know this, yet, it has been the path that I continue to take?
    Do I really want to stop being overweight??? Am I used to it being the security blanket for my self loathing?? Do I just use being overweight as the perfect excuse go not achieve what I want out of life? I don’t know the answers to any of these questions, and yet I
    keep asking more. That’s my problem, I am so busy intellectualizing my life and waiting for it to be perfect in order to do anything, that I have stopped actually living it to it’s fullest!!! It’s such a sad state of affairs, and one that I will stop.
    Historically speaking most of the great weight loss masters have become just that after having ‘the’ moment. That look in a shop window, that comment from a 4 year old, a health scare, a death, a marriage etc etc etc……how many of those reasons are about just the person??? Not many.
    So tomorrow is another day, and the day after….continue till fade. I will live my life to it’s fullest, I will get to 75kgs and I will do it for me. I won’t wait till Xmas in July has finished, I won’t wait till I finish that bottle of red….I will just see how I go day by day, step by step.
