Short version of my story: 2008 weighed 355-lbs. Started WeightWatchers online and lost 70-lbs. Then stopped the online, gained back 27-lbs to get back to 317. Beginning of 2011, I went back to WW Online and lost 27-lbs. Work became extremely stressful, fell off the bandwagon and was in a mental tailspin. Eating also went to crap too. I'm back up to 315 and having trouble sticking with anything.
I feel I need a change of pace from WeightWatchers (which does work, but not for me after 6-months). A friend recommended a book called "The Four Hour Body" by Tim Feriss. The diet will be an extreme change for me and I need it to lead me to a true lifestyle change. I look at it as the diet will get me there, I'll learn what I need to make it long term as I progress.
I have yet to convert to the diet full on yet, mostly due to poor planning / execution and will power. I have been able to switch breakfast over. I actually think this is the easiest part. Lunch, dinner and 'other' is where I lose it. Since breakfast was the easiest to switch over, I consider that complete. I'm not going to shift the focus to lunch. If I can rock lunch, then its off to dinner. Snacks should be easy if I can stick to sugar-free jello.
