Can a CONTROL FREAK lose weight?

The diet plan that works for me is not just a daily menu, but a lifestyle. It does deal with the food eaten in any given day, but also deals with the mind and body.

We all know that when we diet we have to exercise to get it to really work. OK – diet? Diet is that food we do eat all the time. What good is it to lose the extra pounds only to gain them back? And is dieting for looks enough? Not in my book. In fact, I would rather be healthy – and I will take the better appearance as a good side effect – I am not stupid!!

Most of us that are over weight, and I mean over over weight, not just a few pounds, have some issues to deal with. We need to adjust our self-image, change our thinking about food, and find other ways of comfort, enjoyment, and fulfillment.

Now, if you combine all of that with PORTION CONTROL you will lose weight. One of my problems is I have no portion control, at least not all the time. There is a great program NutriSystem which gives you help with all those aspects, plus is the ultimate in convenience. Who has time to fix those fancy low fat, low sugar meals and snacks?

This is not an ad for NutriSystem as such. I really believe everything I have written here. I have all those problems myself and have lost 25 of the 100 pounds I have to lose. I lost them in a three month time period.

I have found that NutriSystem is convenient, good tasting, and works. They have several plans to fit many unique requirements. See my NutriSystem review page.

Old Habits Die Hard

I have been dieting for several months. I started out realizing that my eating habits had to change. So I changed them. I started eating a small breakfast, added a mid-morning snack, continued my lunch, mid-afternoon snack, and dinner, added a desert – usually as an evening snack. This was great. But since my focus has turned to other aspects of my life, I find that my eating habits gradually moved around until I was back into the lunch, snack, dinner, binge cycle.

You know we are all on a diet. Our diet is what we eat. That is the simple truth. So, we don’t need to ‘go on a diet’, we need to CHANGE our diet to a healthier one. I have been learning so much about eating and how the body reacts to the eating over the past few years. I mean beyond counting calories. It started when I was introduced to a line of products put out by Mannatech. Then I read their literature on the 8 essencial ’sugars’, why we need them, and what they do. After that, I went into reading about water – filtered and unfiltered. Do you know how yucky our water is? But that is another subject. On to the Hallalujah diet and vegetarian truths (no, I am not a vegetarian). There is so much to learn.

In future posts I want to go into each of these subject. I also want to review and make a page on DietDirect, NutriSystem , Dr. Siegal’s® COOKIE DIET™, Bistrol MD, DietWatch.com, Chefs Diet Prepared Meals & Snacks, Medifast, and others.
