Ya know Liv...... I never think of this as "the diet" and maybe that has helped me. In the begining I forced my self to say "way of living" or "way of life" or "low carb lifestyle" but I would never say "diet". Now it comes natural.

When I think "diet" I think failure. That is probably because of my history with diets.

I am on a quest for my health and guess what? I am loosing weight as a reward!! Now THAT is what you should tell yourself every day until that "diet" word goes away. LOL

You are doing so well!
