I really struggle in finding pleasure in it, but I'm trying to find my way. | I know this sounds really dumb, but if you find a program that you like, it will be A LOT easier to stick with it rather than to trudge through one you hate every morning. I had the same problem with my exercise video until I found one by another instructor who really motivated me. I went from Denise Austin to Billy Blanks and love it. He's really kicked my butt into shape over the past 3 months and I've lost 10 pounds by exercising and eating right, No supplements. Good Luck to you and I hope you find something that will work for you! |

Rep Power: 357932 | | It's an educational list...
I'm guilty of entirely too many of them - especially the self-esteem related ones..
.but this one... made me laugh Quote: |
37. Refusing to read self-improvement materials on a regular basis.
| George Carlin has the best comment regarding self-help books... "The part I really don’t understand is if you’re looking for self-help, why would you read a book written by somebody else? That’s not self-help, that’s help. There's no such thing as self help if you did it yourself, you didn't need help."

Rep Power: 0 | | Don't you worry kateybaby  I'm guilty of almost every single last one.. Except the one over calorie obsession and weighing yourself..
That's ok though you guys.. Bad habits are there to change.. Gives you something to do in life
By the way.. Both Vitamin C and Calcium have been proven to aid in your body to lose weight.. so don't knock them.. You’ll be amazed what happens to your body when all the right nutrients are received..
Your skin, your hair, eyes.. Everything looks much better
xxxx
Thanks for the good words and encouraging notes on my 1st letter you guys.. You work like an inner search light on people..
Cheers

23. Confusing fat with a personality trait.
| I'm not sure that this is just a dieting mistake...

Rep Power: 13 | | Nice one Bronsk !!
I counted, I have been guilty of 40 of them in the past (not all at once I hasten to add!)
But on this attempt, just four  .
4 - weighing in more than once a week (just ask the FSD, but I have promised to change!!)
15 - finishing every last bit, even when full (I may try to leave one spoonful of whatever i eat for a while, until I can break this habit of a lifetime)
24 - thinking they are unattractive (must try to be more positive and less hard on my self)
48 - not taking supplements (its funny, I can cycle 10 miles, but getting round to swallowing a little tablet? Must try harder  )
Now I have recognised these I can start dealing with them. Thanks Wonderwoman! (I feel like a townsperson in a comic  )

Rep Power: 0 | | | Great List,
I think that number 1 and number 2 are probably the most important, must of us go into a diet for the short term, knowing full well that obesity is a chronic problem. Find something that you could do for the rest of your life and do it. No one can eat cabbage soup everyday.

| If you are eating correctly, are vitamins and supplements really neccessary?
