Hiya GSpumpkin - Welcome!
Mmmm - your screen name makes me want pumpkin. Such a great season for it.
ANYWAY...the key for me was deciding I wasn't going to go on a "diet" - I was going to change my lifestyle. Diets you can go on and off of, but if you change your lifestyle, you never "go off" - you just keep going with your healthy ways.
We have some great WW forums here, so do check those out. Can't wait to hear more from you soon!
