"Non-violence and truth are inseparable and presuppose one another. There is no god higher than truth."
               mahatma gandhi

 The key to losing weight on any plan is being truthful to yourself. Rationalizing what we eat is allowing ourselves not to be totally honest to the plan we have chosen. There comes a time when we need to get rid of the alibi's that give us permission to  eat what we shouldn't be eating.  Oh...  I need this because I am... sick, hurting, unloved, upset, angry...etc etc... Doing this is reacting to emotions in a less than adult way.
       Take a good look in the mirror, that "fat" person staring back at you wants you to confront your obesity ....honestly.  Sad but true those of us who are overweight, display our problem for the whole world to see and ridicule. Also trying self confrontation is far from pleasant(like when I took my before picture just look at the expression on my face..I KNEW I was obese and needed to do something about it) . But to survive and win this war with the fat monsters these things must be done.
So the time has come to allow your mind to grow  and guide you  in new and more honest direction.  Searching for honesty and self understanding, coupled with a smart, planned eating program(MTSWMO),spells success.  We  all can do this. I know we can!!
