After a long absence from this blog, I am back with an update. It turns out that I've chosen a time consuming task. The image in the mirror is the tip of the iceburg. Why do you eat after you're full? Why don't you exercise? If the answers are truly that the food tastes good and that you don't have time, then any number of diets will work for you. The truth is that most reasonable food plans will help you lose weight if you stick to them.
If the answers to these questions lie deeper than temporary comfort or convenience, if you find that you cannot choose wisely even when you "want" to, if there is a block that is more powerful than the urge to change, then you may have a problem that is not going to be solved by a new book. Unless the new book is about changing your mind first, then letting your body change. I'm following a new plan myself.
I'm in counselling again, I'm attending on-line support group meetings, and I'm reading a helpful book. But there are many good books out there to address the inside. They've been around for awhile but they're getting more attention these days as the obesity epidemic has the country bursting out of its fat jeans.
