When you’re trying to readjust your eating habits, think hard about pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. Too often, I have seen people who go on a DIET eat the very same thing for pretty much every meal. I’ve done it myself. Hell, I DO it myself. It seems so much easier when you know the POINTS® or calories or carb count (pick your poison) of what you’re eating.
Grilled chicken on mixed greens with oil and vinegar, or diet (ick!) Italian dressing. It gets old. The idea of eating like that for the rest of your life becomes depressing, and, bingo, you’re back to your bad eating habits again.
Can’t say this enough: you are learning to eat for the rest of your life! Toss out the diet, dammit!
