This time it needs to stick...

I get so carried away with trying to find the perfect plan. Raw food, South Beach, Weight Watchers, macrobiotic, etc... But I am done. I have had it. I just eat too much and need to stop. I am an emotional eater and I know that. I stress and I eat. I get lonely and I eat. I get bored and I eat. I also love food, really good food and really bad food. I can overeat arugula salad the same as a McDonald's double cheeseburger.... mmmm.... but I have never seen my scale reach 150 and at 149 on Monday I think I finally scared myself into actually making this work. I am just going to eat what I eat but in smaller amounts and make sure it is all accounted for.  I am aiming for 1200-1500 calories a day and will try to bring exercise into the picture soon.

I work in an office 9-5 and sit in front of a computer so I lead a pretty sedentary life. I am studying for the LSAT in June and take a class every Tues/Thurs 6-9:30 which I go straight to after work. I need to think of some options for dinner so that I don't come home after class and overeat.
