I so understand what you mean, i too need to lose weight (lots and lots), it is so hard though when you like your food. Your right we all know what we need to do to change our eating habits for life, it is a new way of life, not just for a period of time.
I am trying to get back to the old fashioned way of eating (Grandparents etc), small portion of meat and then vegetables or salad, and fruit to fill up on. My problem is i dont eat any breakfast or anything in fact until lunchtime, 1 - 2 pm. I know this is not good but i honestly dont feel hungry at all - now night-time is a different matter.

Yes.... i think to myself when the weight has come off then maybe we will feel more energetic... and so can eat a few of the goodies without worrying too much. I think taking it a little at a time is good, i am trying to be very good all week - which though is hard, is going ok. Then at weekends i just have to be a bit more relaxed.... but the way i look at it it has to be better than not doing anything at all Or is that just me trying to justify myself????

I am quite active all day with work etc, but have been taking Harvey out most evenings for a walk, mostly dont want to go - but then feel glad when i have been!!! But the little boooooger now wont let me not go - he mithers me at the time we usually go, i dont know bullied by a little 3.5 lb Yorkie

So good luck, i will be thinking of you.
