    After a while, your commitment to logging may translate into you being able to listen to your body and know what you should eat. Maybe you easily fall into tempting habits and will need to log for the rest of your life. It is all about finding a healthy balance, because this process should not be frustrating. At first yes, but if you are continuously annoyed with this lifestyle you probably won't be able to maintain it. Find what works for you.

    I know the feeling. I went on my first diet at age 11 (the Twiggy years). That makes 48 years now of either dieting or feeling like I should be dieting (with maybe 4 years total of weighing what I should and not worrying about it). This time I'm making a huge effort to change my life-style rather than "going on a diet", but so far it's just semantics. It feels exactly the same, except that it takes a lot longer to see results this time around, which destroys my motivation, so I fall off the rails, then start over in a continuous cycle.
