Maybe once I reach goal I can cut myself some slack, but I've been overweight for this many years, I know that I'm probably going to have to be pretty vigilant for the rest of my life. Maybe not as strict as I'm being now, but I am going to always have to be aware of what I'm putting in my mouth.

I agree with you though. Definitely after you've been doing this for a while & kind of have a handle on this I can see taking a "break" if you want to, but for me personally this would just lead down the road right back to being 283 lbs. I have to be vigilant from now until I'm at goal weight. THEN maybe I can give myself a little "break".

To me if it means going on a 5000 calorie a day bender for an entire week, then No, I don't think that's good. But if it means "not going to count calories and focus entirely on losing weight for the week" then that might be okay. It also depends on timing. I wouldn't be taking a break after my first 10 days of change, but maybe after 2 or 3 months I might cut myself a break for a week.<br /><a href="http://fogdogweightloss.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">-FogDog Weight Loss</a>FogDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16261774071964785378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8759914314759345983.post-12884571908433079862013-01-17T09:17:21.248-06:002013-01-17T09:17:21.248-06:00I am in the same boat you are and feel that I am A...I am in the same boat you are and feel that I am ALL in this time around. Things are different this time around. I really can't explain it. I don't agree with the saying of "taking time off" I feel you can have little indulgences as long as you are still staying true to your healthy lifestyleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
