    I wanted to share something that has helped me, not only with dieting, but in life in general...

    In the book, "You! On a Diet" it says, (and I paraphrase) if you slip up (say eat 1/2 a cake or go for an extra slice of pizza) simply make a "U-Turn." It likens it to the GPS system in your car... if you miss a turn, it doesn't say... well, you've screwed up now, you might as well go all the way in the wrong direction. No. Instead it says, at your next possible opportunity, make a U-Turn.

    Using this logic, there is no longer such a thing as a "gateway" food or an excuse to give up. Because if you screw up, just make a U-Turn and get back on the right course.
    I LOVE IT!!!! Thank you for sharing!:flowerforyou:

    muah. I love this U-turn thing, Mollie. Otherwise, I'm driving into the Atlantic Ocean. (and I'm a Left-Coaster)

    U-Turn update... my weight loss is back on track. I've lost 35lbs this year with only 26 to go. I'm in the homestretch and I just entered the 100's for the first time in my life.

    U-Turn 143.... I love you.
