"The difference between those who are successful with healthy lifestyle change and those who drop out is not that the successful ones don't struggle but that they bounce back!"

I committed to No S for a lot of reasons but another one was that I read on the National Weight Loss Registry that long term maintainers said they turned a corner when they started pulling themselves back from their slip-ups faster. They quit letting failures become long term and fought their way to keep them temporary.
Don't "crash the car," and if you do, just go back to sanity the next day, even if you have to do it an hour at a time. Fast between meals on N days and learn not to be an idiot on S days even if it takes months or years. Just keep going.
