Do you view weightless as a battle?

I see so many references on here to winning the war, fighting the flab, the battle of the bulge, how you have to WANT it more than you want anything, the difference between interest and dedication.....all these descriptions of not being overweight as a really hard thing.

It doesn't have to be. I think people over think, and over act about issues regarding weight, and food. I think a lot of people need to stop agonising and relax and just accept that they are going to get there, this is how to do it (log your food, stick to your calories, get some exercise), and stop making everything so shout and aggressive. I'm not fighting anyone. I don't want to spend my life feeling like I am at war. I just want to get on with life and not have to think about it. I think the more aggressive the language, the more emotional investment you have in it all, and the harder you are going to take the bad days. People need to chill.
