I WILL NOT GO BACK TO BEING FAT AGAIN!

You may say that, but without scrutinizing the whys behind your
recent weight gain, you are doomed to repeat it over and over again.
Why would you continue to eat/indulge/large dinners etc when you KNOW
thats the road back to packing on the pounds? Once in awhile swiftly
becomes and everyday habit again. Is it simply self-sabotage? Is it
denial? Usually, those who keep the weight off make certain decisions
to change things about their lifestyle, while those who gain it all
back just cant take that leap and continually go back to habits they
know are self destructive. So I think there is alot to be said for
fixing ones head with an introspective look before you begin WW again.
Plot the next two weeks to set small goals, clean up your eating,
increase your exercise and then reweigh yourself. I think you'll be
surprised that alot of the temporary bloat is gone.
Going to WW meetings, posting in groups etc are all good support (dont
get me wrong here) but if you dont have the 'faith' to do it for
yourself(to know you have the inner strength), its kind of like
sinning outside of church. You know you shouldnt but you do anyways.
It all comes down to you and the choices you make and not solely
relying on the support of others to somehow 'make' you change
temporarily, gaining it back, and then running back to them to
remanage your eating habits again and again. Kind of like a vicious
cycle. (Been there done that!) You have to make your own checks and
balances and decide that you want this to be a permanent change for
the better. WW has given you the nutritional education base you needed
at one time, its up to you to implement it and stick with it.
