I've been looking around at people and am becoming quite discouraged about losing weight permanently. There is this woman at work who lost over 50 lbs....but has gained it back plus some. My boss was counting his calories religiously and lost about 30 lbs....and is beginning to gain it back. My sister is talking about a weight loss program that worked for her before...but is now at her heaviest weight ever. Who has kept it off permanently? Will I be able to?
This last week I have been depressed and so I ignored any exercise and ate whenever I felt like it. I lost a pound. Good right? But my fear is that I'll fall into the same trap as I have before. I've lost weight but as soon as I forget to keep it in the front of my mind I gain it back.
A good example of that was in '95 when I lost over 40 lbs without even trying. I'd read that book Diets Don't Work and understood that I was eating for emotional reasons. But as soon as I forgot to question whether or not I was hungry, and as soon as I relaxed into thinking I would be thin forever...I gained it back. Plus some.
I am working very hard on the Four Day Win and would like to change my thinking and brain connections so that I will be healthy and fit - without stressing about it. Is it possible?
