Why is this time different?

Last time I got down to my goal weight through the heart break diet - living by myself existing on wine, coffee, cigarettes, drowning in my own depression and tears. Not an intentional weight loss at all, and obviously incredibly unhealthy but I guess the silver lining was that once I got out of my cloud of misery I had this trim little body that just gave me more confidence than I'd had in years. I MISS that feeling like crazy.
This time around I've been thinking back to that time when I just felt so confident and happy in my own body. When you feel beautiful in yourself I think that shines through. I'm determined to get back that feeling with hard work, and I think this will add even more to my confidence because I've worked hard for it. This time I'm not going to underestimate my determination!0 -
Recording your food intake BEFORE you start dieting is a brilliant idea! I think seeing those numbers would be such an eye opener! I plan to do this if I fall off the wagon to shock me back on track ( hopefully it doesn't come to this though).0
