[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 112743, member: 805"] I think the word diet is a bad word! I totally agree it's about making a lifestyle change. It's getting to the point where you are ready for the change that is the hard part. I think all of us that have weight to loose know what we should be doing. It's not really a matter of will power. It's a matter of wanting to do what is healthy more than what is unhealthy. Except in the case of some medical issue, I'm sure we all knew when we put something in our mouth that was not "a good thing." It felt good though. I think we all know that activity is a good thing. But it may be overwhelming if you carry around an extra 100 or plus pounds. That's what is to be overcome. When you have 100 pounds or more to loose it is a daunting prospect. JJJ has it right in making small incremental goals. I keep thinking about how much more I will feel like doing with my kids. Ok, here's my goal - to attend easy child's high school graduation next year and be comfortable with myself and confident in how I look. To not be affected by the mass of people, the warm temps, or the length of the walk from the parking deck to the venue. I have set that up as my time table. So, I have 18 months to find the better me. I don't have a particular weight goal - just a feeling. My weight increments will begin with the first 25 as the first goal. Since we started the forum on Wed., and many of you began your lifestyle change on a Tuesday (New Year), let's use Wednesday as our progress report day. Sharon [/QUOTE]
