Absolutely.  The discipline and self control are the hardest parts, I think.

The food kicks my ass, too.

Yes. This. ^5 Pav.

And I would add: there's no reason for anger at yourself over it. It's simply a math problem that needs solving, you know? It's merely science.

I'm trying to get back to that non-emotional state as we speak. :)

It would be easier if food sucked.  And exercise was the high point of the day.

But perserverance wins.  The tortoise and the hare.  Just keep plugging along.  You CAN do it.

I hear ya, and you're right.  Everybody likes food.  We need it to live, for one thing.  But the relationship we have with the food is where the differences begin.  That was the toughest part of this process for me - overcoming my emotional eating and redefining how food fit into my life.  Once I cleared that gargantuan hurdle, the rest of it fell into place pretty easily.

Keep up the great work - you can do this!
