    What I eat is my diet. How I eat it is a lifestyle change. So, I guess a bit of both.

    How I eat is really how I've been eating for a few years but it was definitely a lifestyle change to get there. Counting calories and making sure I'm accountable for my food and exercise is a lifestyle change for me as well. At some point, I may relax on calorie counting a little bit but honestly, I expect to keep at it for as long as I want to maintain my weight loss.

    It's a lifestyle change for me.

    "Diet" had the connotation of a beginning and end, and at the end I go back to eating the way you did before - the cause of yo-yo dieting. So I'm watching portion sizes, making wiser choises, and exercising on a regular basis. I need it to be sustainable!

    Lifestyle change. Diet's never did anything for me except make me feel deprived.
