Last post on the subject

Well, this is probably going to be my last post on my diet.  I thought posting here might help and maybe it did right there at first, but it isn’t really now.

Sadly I am following the same pattern I always follow.  I diet and then fall off the wagon and eat enough to gain back everything I lost.  The process used to take months.  Now it usually happens very quickly.

They say that the brain has a set point for desired weight which is just a little more than you weight right now.  It is quickly reset when you gain but when you lose it takes a year or so for the body to get used to weighing less and stop trying to gain it back.  From personal experience, that’s the way it works for me.  I am probably better off not trying to diet in the first place.

Yeah….  it’s depressing.
