She said that one day it will get easier, that I won't think of it as a diet, and I think that is today...I've been getting a lot of litter signs. Like watching my fiance eat a huge bowl of Cereal and look down to my mug serving. Tossing veggies in my cart at the market and not even going down the snack isle. I mean...I don't even WANT to, I'm not even curious! Then the big one hit...See I used to be a sucker for Peanut butter cups. Every time I would go to the gym I'd reward myself with one mini. My doctor said this was okay, and that it was a good motivational tool. Lately though they've been tasting funny...kind of...bad? So I bought a new bag (Doh!) and tried a fresh one...Still tasted funny. I mentioned this to my doctor and she said 'Eventually you'll begin to taste food without all the superficial addictions. Yes she said artificial things can be addictive... Such as you eat a lot of sugar every day and you need more and more to taste the sweetness. Candy is officially too sweet for me. Of course I replaced them with these..crayon shaped Popsicles. they're only 60 calories, and there's 6 grams of sugar in them, which is really good for one of my 2 snacks. Not only that but my blood sugar hasn't been spiking at all, actually it's been dipping really low (Mid 90s AFTER eating a meal?) and my doctor said it might be time to get off the diabetes meds.
So yeah the weight loss itself hasn't been going as fast, but I think I'll forgive my body considering all these other things are changing.
I'm excited.
Yay!
it just goes to show it's not a "diet" but a lifestyle change. Good for you...and slow weight loss is good weight loss as it will be easier to keep off in the long run. Congrats on the weight loss so far it is tremendous. 
And it's a hard step to come to terms with. As much as people around us can say "It's permanent" it's a real personal epiphany that has to take place.
