A few years ago I went from 265 lbs to 195. I was amazed at how much better I felt overall.

Unfortunately, I have a relationship with sweets that is very similar to Charlie Sheen's relationship with cocaine. I haven't gained all that weight back but I have gained back some of it.

Getting the motivation and self control to eat right is incredibly hard work.

Damn I'm feeling you. I'm in the fall process (solidly down 15kg/33lb, approaching 20kg/44lb) with about 10-15kg to go. When my belly stops flapping I'm good I think. But I fear the rebound... Currently lots of my evening snacking have disappeared because of evening gym classes, so late home and even later dinner. So I don't have time anymore to get snacky. Or if I do it's almost bedtime anyway so I'll just go to bed instead.

But once I've hit my goal and don't need to hit gym that hard anymore... That frightens me. A little bit at least. Made some good connections there and got a routine going so i can probably keep it up.
