Do you consider yourself "on a diet?"

Yep ... I am on a diet.

And by diet I mean ... restrictive and short-term/finite

I have no plans to sustain this any longer than necessary!


I do, however, plan to continue with some aspects of this diet. For example, rather than knocking back a bag of chocolate after work, I'm rather liking my cottage cheese and cucumbers. So I'll probably keep that most days. And along the way, I've discovered several delicious, low-cal food choices for lunch and dinner. I'll keep those because I like them enough that I crave them sometimes.

But other than that, I plan to be back to "normal" again soon.

I consider myself on a diet when i'm trying to lose weight. I'm currently in that phase. The rest of the time, i'm maintaining. I don't buy into this angst about terminology. I am truly not traumatised by dieting and I don't have issues with the word diet.

I follow a diet in the sense that a diet is how and what one eats, not how much. This is something I plan to keep up forever as I've learned the way to eat that enhances my health and well being.

Hm, well In a sense I am following a diet, a diet of good wholesome foods. I've been eating moderately well for a while now. I don't restrict myself, I'm just trying to build and maintain good habits. Hey I'm losing weight too which is a bonus!
