My dad... & dieting...
I went to see my father today. I hadn't seen him in over a year. He said I looked like I'd lost a little weight.
He thinks I'm starving myself. He lectured me a bit about my "crazy up & down diets."
I've been thinking about that all night. No one ever starts out on a diet with the intention of gaining it all back, especially since we've all heard about how bad yoyo dieting is.
My question is this: For those who've tried & failed diets, or who've succeeded briefly only to gain it back, what do you think was the flaw in the plan? What piece of the puzzle was missing? What do you think went wrong before, and how are you combating those issues now?
