Most days my lunch is yogurt and granola...a treat now and then is why it works...for me.



was on my phone - will add more....My past failures at this (which I labeled "diets&quot were in part due to the denial thing. Part of what motivates me is that now and then I allow myself to have something from my past choices that I enjoyed - but in moderation. So once a week I have lunch with friends - my "meat fix" - burger, whatever - but it is then easy to get back on the healthier stuff.

Key for me is the self awareness - writing it all down!
