First Diet Ever

jlf1967

Hit menopause and gained 20lbs. I suppose I've been pretty lucky I haven't had to diet before - ever - but this is by far the most difficult thing I've ever done. So hungry! So obsessed with food! How do people keep this up for months on end? I'm just a week in, and feeling scared I won't be able to keep going. Also, got a party to go to tonight, with a BLOODY BUFFET and WINE. My downfalls. Such huge respect to those dieters who manage to lose stones and stones. They are my new super heroes. Oh, have lost 2lbs so far. Am convinced my paunch is smaller!
