Well, about all I can think of is you GOTTA CHANGE YOUR HEADSPACE. I hear alot of people on this board talk about "I feel so deprived!". Why IS that? Is it really DEPRIVED?
On this WL journey, I've learned that attitude is
everything. Am I "depriving" myself of the joys that only FOOD can bring? No. At the moment, I'm making sacrifices to get what I want--a trimmer, sexier, HEALTHIER body. And, fortunately, for the FIRST time, I'm doing it WITHOUT HUNGER! How much better can it get??
Here's another piece of inspiration I draw from, periodically. I usually use this more for exercise, but it can apply to one's diet, as well. I'm alive. I'm relatively HEALTHY, I have the ability to move myself, I'm fortunate to have a family that loves me. In reality, I have it made, compared to what some other people have. There are many people out there that can't feed themselves and have to rely on someone else to feed them, and hopefully make good choices FOR them. There are people that are malnourished, underfed, and ill because of a tainted water supply, and have no means to improve their own conditions. There are people who have tragically LOST their lives in car accidents, natural disasters, sudden onset illnesses, and the like. What would THOSE people give to have another chance to BREATHE, let alone have a healthy lifestyle!
YOU have all the opportunities these people do not. Given all these circumstances, now, WHY ON EARTH would you choose to eat anything less than the best, most nutrient-dense foods you can find? Is food now a fuel, a means to a better, healthier body, or is it still a "quick fix"?
