Oxymoron huh? Well that's how I feel when it comes to my eating habits. I tried all sorts of diets at this point, and lately I think I been doing well when it comes to dieting. Really well in fact, in comparison to the years past. But there's more to life than constantly worrying about weight, it's been holding me back for all tons of things in life. I know it limits me on my confidence, my career choices, when it comes to dating.

I'm now floating around 176, which is my lowest. People don't look at me and think,"fat". Highest is 220. I like this weight since I don't feel like it's totally "hopeless", but I don't feel "skinny" either. But I have an important birthday, I'm turning 21 in Dec! And I want to be 150 lbs. That's in 80 days. I would have to lose on average 2 lbs a week. To be 150 would be like a dream.

Why does my logic when it comes to eating tell me,

"You will start tomorrow"
"You don't know where's your next meal"
"This costs money!"
"Forget it... EAT"

I always put it off till tomorrow, but there's no more tomorrows I can put off. I want to live life. It just doesn't seem rational when I pig out, knowing full well I need to lose weight.

I think most of us have struggled with putting it off. And you're right, it doesn't make sense to feel bad about your weight yet binge on tons of food that just adds to the problem. That's why it is so hard, because it's often times not a logical battle that we are facing. It is simple: eat less than you burn. BUT it is not easy.

I'm certain you can meet your goal by your birthday!
