You are missing a HUGE piece of this puzzle...

It's not about not being "ready" and having "excuses"....So yes, you are naive. There is just so much more to it than calories in and calories out...yes, that is the math of it. But we aren't made of math. There are so many more facets to us human beings...we are very complicated creatures.

Yes, in a very technical sense you are completely right, but you are being very robotic about it. For me, eating is a lot more than "will power"...for me to stop eating means I have taken away one of my ways of coping with very real hurt. And that isn't something I can do until I have a NEW coping mechanism. That has NOTHING to do with will power.

Luckily...my husband is attracted to me...he loves my brain. He knows the fat will go someday...but that is one aspect of me, he is crazy about every other part of me.
