I started making changes yesterday, and with success, still feeling positive... but I think what upsets me is the use of the word Diet... when I see the Diet it read negativity to me, it says your fat and you can't eat this or your can't eat that... I prefer change to a healthier lifestyle. 'Can't' and 'diet' fall in the same category 'negative'... so I am changing to a healthier lifestyle and feeling great even though its only my second day..

Yes, it needn't be a diet at all. I look at it as a series of adjustments.

Oh well done you ! Success! Wonderful way to think of it & your 100% right, everything and anything is 'allowed' but boring boring boring alert, it's the amounts (as if you didn't know) my journey starts (again ) today and I'm going to keep the healthier changes thought at the forefront, diet sounds sooooooo restrictive and as you say negative !

Best wishes, trier ?
