I think the worst thing we can do is lie to ourselves. I know for many that seems like a falllacy but I believe it to be words to live by. I'm not talking about the blame we do to allieviate the guilt we feel brought on by outside forces. I'm talking about the lies we tell ourselves to justify the behavior we can't except or have a difficult time changing. I have been on and off the diet roller coaster for years. one thing that I have found that helps get me back on track it to just write it all down. It doesn't matter if I am sticking to a specific diet or calories allotment. just be honest with yourself write it down. One cookie from the break room. A coffee from the drive through, an spoonfull of the kids Mac and cheese. Whatever. Even if you don't go as far as to log the actual calories and serving size, write it down. And then look at it. Truly look at it. Did you get it all? Were you honest? Did you omit anything? Because in order to correct the behavior you need to truly see it and understand it. We all eat for different reasons. Yes we eat because we are hungry, but if you are significantly overweight you are definitely eating for additional reasons then hunger. I become infuriated when I see some of those commercials for diet pills that make it look like you have an uncontrollable need to eat. Fostered by some epicenter in your brain. Don't fall into the spiraling decent of blaming everything and anything for your behavior. I'm fat because tend to overeat. Grazing all day on various food items for various reasons. I like it it tastes good. I'm bored I don't know what to do with myself. I'm anxious about something I can't control. I'm fat because my portion sizes are way too large. I want to be sure I get to taste everything at the buffet. I'm fat because I have had very little exercise, I have not put any effort at all into going that extra mile. Be honest!! Once you face the truths then you can begin to modify the behavior. You and only you can do that.
