Discipline is my lesson du jour. Everyday it's a struggle to eat healthy, to go running and then to stretch so that I don't have any injuries. To go to work day after day to sit there hour after hour. I tell myself just one day off or skip one exercise or just one brownie, but the more that I give in, the harder it is to go back!

I have trouble with this too! This year I'm trying to systematize my goals, it does help a bit with staying disciplined, I'll copy the post I made about it in another thread below.

Every time I get a craving to do something I shouldn't be doing (like eating a brownie), I say to myself 'this is your body resisting positive change'. The human body/mind is strange, it always seems to resist what's best for it, so you have to become aware of it so you can overcome it.

Sounds good thank you :D

Really good advice, dreamer 777 and udevi, thank you for sharing.

Helping ourselves is hard. Why the body pushes for something unhealthy, I'm not sure but I struggle against it too.

I read that if you cut all sugar out of your diet (and all fake sweeteners too) for a period of time like a month, you won't crave them any longer. There is some interesting advice out there that sugar is the big evil that really causes us the weight and even maybe emotional problems. I haven't cut all the sugar from my life yet, but I like to read and learn about it so when I'm strong enough to do it, I can.

Here's a cool link about the big evil of sugar.
