So why is THIS the year it's going to be different?

If you're like me and you've tried and tried to lose the weight, only to fail time and time again, then think about this quote and ask yourself, why is it going to be different THIS TIME?

"If you keep doing what you always did, you will get what you always got."

Never in any diet or change in my lifestyle or whatever you want to call it, have I lost weight for me. It was always to please someone else. You know how you can live your life to make everyone else happy and the only way to make you happy is to eat? Well I am making myself happy eating healthy food. I am taking care of me. And it feels good. I am tired of life passing me by and so I am finally taking life by the reins and making my future.
That is what is different for me this time.

This Year

I've never gone on any diet to lose weight since I've gained it. I wasn't always this big. So this year is different because I've finally decided to do it. And it's going very well for me already.

PT!

PT is the reason this year will be different. I have gone through little bouts of focus on fitness/health but facing that workout section and logging what goes into my mouth for the world to see each and every day has caused me to be more focused than I have EVER been.

I started 4 months ago in hopes that I would be half way near my goal by New Years (I have about 20+ pounds to lose). Yes, It's been slow but I pretty much eliminated binge eating and now my next goal is to stop mindless eating. Well, I'm 1/3 way there. Plus, in 5 months I'll be on my way on the other side of the country interning. In addition, I'll be living with a few other interns and probably going out at night and weekdays (and it's summer to boot) so I don't want to feel confident in my body and be able to wear tank tops without extra fat on my arms and gut! So that puts added pressure. And I've been wanting this for myself for several years now.

I'm with 5:15! Thank goodness this year I have PT and the Becks book - it's going to happen this time, and it's not even that hard (vs. last year) with these tools now!

Have you ever had a feeling that something was different about what will happen? That is how I feel. I know that something is different and things that I have wished for forever are going to happen. Things are going to come true for me and I am ready with the changes that I want to make. Here is to the new year!

Because I'm using Judith Beck's plan to adopt a daily habit in order to finally change my behaviours.
