I've decided I'm on a HELS, not a diet.

that's the good news, it gives you something to
look forward to every once in a while!
So good luck with your journey, please feel

I'll agree.. I always pick one day and have something i really want... no counting calories.. but I do make sure i don't over do it.0

Hahaha I like that. (:
I also try not to say "I'm trying to lose weight' because the word 'trying' implies that I'm currently not doing a very good job. lol0 -
That's absolutely why I'm here for!0

Although I'm not lovin' the HELS abbreviation (a bit too much like "hell" if you ask me), I agree. This has to be a lifestyle change, not a diet. I'm not on any special diet, just watching what I eat, eating healthier, and counting cals via MFP. No diet for me.0
