Indecision
- POSTED ON: Jan 05, 2012

                
At the beginning of every January
I pick some new food plan and experiment with it.
However, all this week I have felt indecisive.
Which food plan will I commit to?

While I'm thinking it over, 
I'm just doing the best I can to continue
eating whatever appeals to me,
in the smallest amounts possible
while writing everything into my food journal, DietPower. 

This is an acceptable plan, 
but I need a bit more for a little while,
after my excess Holiday eating,
to help me drop back down a bit. 

I think, for me, the problem is that described 
in that willpower book I'm reading.
I'm using all my willpower up because of my
enormous expenditure of time and energy
on my DietHobby YouTube Channel...
which now has over 3,000 subscribers
And I've now shot and uploaded over 250 videos.

My other current deterrant, 
is that this month I've hardly any time before
I travel out of state for my step-son's wedding,
which will be another vacation week.

Of course this doesn't excuse overeating,
and needs to be factored into my maintenance,
however, it does take motivation away from 
starting and committing to a new type of food plan.
So that part probably won't happen until the end of this month.

You might ask, why is this relevant to me?
I don't know.  
I'm just sharing where I am and what I'm doing
on my weight-loss and weight-maintenance journey.
Following through with what I need to do
isn't all easy and clear-cut, even after 6 years of maintenance
of a large weight-loss. 


Not Giving Up

  Life isn't about winning.  It's about not giving up. 
This is an important truth to remember here at the beginning of the Dieting year. 


French Toast on a Diet

This is a picture of one serving of food from my new cooking video,
Diet French Toast
which is located at DietHobby, under RECIPES,  Mini-Meals.

Today is Monday, January 2, 2012.
Since Sunday was New Year's Day, it's a Holiday,
and officially the end of the Holiday season.
 For many, many thousands  of people,
tomorrow the Dieting season will begin. 

Any diet will work.  Just pick one and get started. 
If and when it stops working or becomes incredibly boring,
then pick another and do that one. 

Get rid of your negative feelings about Dieting.
Avoid using negative terms,
and start thinking positively about the process. 
Dieting is a Good Thing,
an activity that can become very enjoyable.

Join me in making Dieting a Hobby. 
This mind-set can be a great help in weight-loss
and in maintaining that weight-loss.
