[quote=Anonymous]OP, you say willpower is your problem so it seems to me restrictive diets won't work for you. What worked for me (lost 40lbs kept off for over 9 years), was calorie counting. I could eat what I wanted, as long as it was under my calorie count. I would suggest for you that you stop going hard immediately, its too much pressure. Start small. Eat what you normally would but only eat half of it. You get the satisfaction but you are eating less. From here on out you don't clear your plate ever again. Take it home or split with your partner or friend. After about two weeks you can then calculate the calories you need then work to come in under that number. You can do this by cutting out the bad stuff and replacing with the good.

Point is, just watch portions and make better choices. Life without eating the things you love isn't much fun. If you want a burger and fries, have it but just eat half the bun and have half the portion of fries. If you're going out to dinner and want to splurge eat super clean for breakfast and lunch. After a while you will learn to become satisfied with much less and you will crave bad foods less. The weight loss won't be fast, but it will last and you will keep your sanity![/quote]
