    Thank you for your post, it has reminded me to take each day as it comes, start a fresh...

    I am getting married in 10 months and want to get down to 9stone (currently 12stone 2lbs).
    After not logging for a few weeks around Christmas (and putting on 12lbs!!!) I am back to it today but feel like it's a mountain to climb again, I am worried I wont make my target goal and feel happy about how I look in my wedding dress... this post has helped me to rethink how I am currently thinking about the next 10 months :)

    Well done for all your weigh loss!!! x

    Thanks “BeingKevin” for the sage advice, everytime I read one of these posts I get a little bit stronger and build a little more fortitude to make it to the end.

    Knitapiece…. WoW! What a great way to look at a problem! I’m a problem solver in my work life and my real life but this is so damn simple, I never put it into the simple little box that makes so much sense. Isn’t it amazing how a simple little analogy about falling down/skinning ones knee can cause an epiphany.

    Thanks to both of you.

    You're learning a new lifestyle, so that you will never have to "diet" again.

    Learn what a USDA-determined proper portion size looks like:

    This site helps by comparing portions with common objects:

    Don't be shy about informing your waitperson at the beginning of a meal,
    "I'll be needing a take-home box later on. Then, I'll mentally divide the plate
    into halves or thirds, eat one portion, and put the rest in the box
    for lunch(es) another day.

    Best wishes!
