My experience is that it's easier and more fun to go towards what I want than to try to get away from what I don't want. Maybe you'd like to focus on a way of being that really inspires you. What would that be? For me, it's about viewing everything I eat as sacred food for my DNA, programming my cells to operate with joy, freedom, love and peace. It's hard to down eat a whole bag of cookies when you're thinking of how that's programming your cells.
Anyway, I did the 6-week extreme makeover earlier this year (I have lost 20 pounds) and was amazed to find I had to eat a lot MORE food than I was used to -- it was actually hard to do. This plan is about revving up your metabolism , so I end up needing to eat more and more food to keep the fires stoked, and becoming a fat-burning machine. Rawrr!
