Random thoughts

I wish I could say something that would motivate everyone equally. I know, it doesn't work that way. It just seems like the past few days, several of my dieting buddies are getting discouraged and falling off the wagon.

Some of them are people who still think dieting is a temporary thing. They don't understand that whole 'lifestyle change' and what it really means. But others are friends who know that things have to change for the long term.

It is one thing to know it, but the doing of it is still the tough part. Day after day, week after week, month after month. Not only that, but not every diet is right for every person. It's a cliche for a reason. "You have to do what works for you."

To my friends, I just want to say: When you're ready, you will pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and begin again. I know you will; and I know you'll be there for me when I lose my motivation, too!
