All or nothing is a trap, a fallacy, one a lot of people fall into. T is the perfect example of someone who lives in that trap. He lost a lot of weight doing Medifast - which he followed perfectly. But count calories or practice moderation? Not so much. That makes it easy for me to give in. I need to remember that I am an adult, I am responsible for my own choices.
I looked at Medifast, but it's hard for me to justify spending $600/month for the 2 of us to eat dust packets. I can do a lot better a lot cheaper, but I admit sticking to your own plan is a lot harder for me than just being handed a regime to blindly follow.
Right now there are some great things happening in my life: our relationship is good and we have (tentatively) set a wedding date. It looks like the Florida house might actually close sometime next week. I am really enjoying my new job. The last one did such a number on my mind, it has been difficult to let my guard down. But I do believe that this one may work out really well.
I find that I see myself a certain way, I have a certain "lifestyle" I visualize and say I want to live that way, and then I don't. I feel like the values I say (at least to myself) I have and the way I live my life don't always align. I find this especially true when it comes to health and fitness, but it's true in other areas as well. Why the disconnect? What's the truth? This is something I need to get to the root of.

Sticking to your own plan is harder, but I'm sure the foods you buy and prepare will be of more nutritious value than anything that comes in a packet. You sound determined. I'm sure you can follow through.
Thank you!
