What?

I can hold my tounge no longer!   Yesterday, I had a patient that said she wanted to lose weight for the purpose of lowering her cholesterol and blood pressure - she was on medication for both.  However, she did not want to do our program because "I just won't count calories."  What does this say about your commitment?  If you refuse to spend 30 seconds looking at a food label to determine the number of calories you are consuming, you probably really don't care that much about your weight.
Breaking News Flash - People who count calories and keep good diet journals are very sucessful at weight loss.  Contrary to popular belief, it is easy to do.  Your mental ability is never the issue - your commitment to yourself is always the issue.
