Why?

Why am I doing this? It is because I wake up each and every morning determined to lose weight and my resolve lasts until I see my first bit of forbidden food. So every day I start a new diet and most days, I fail. And when I go to bed in the evening, I am depressed that I could not do it. Maybe if I write it out, I'll be more successful. Maybe if I send my words out into the blogosphere, it will make a difference. I am strong and intelligent but I seem to be unable to stop killing myself with an unhealthy lifestyle. I have yo-yo dieted myself into a lardass lump of unhappiness. Tomorrow is January 1, 2009, I am hoping I can do better for myself.

I have tried just about every diet out there. They usually work for a while if I can stick to them and get exercising. And then something happens. I'll break an ankle or tear a ligament which stops the exercise and I will slowly drift back to poor eating habits.

So which diet am I going to try today? None. I am going to eat healthy and try to get some perspective.
