I think what helped me was deciding it had to be a lifestyle change. Not a diet, not these 'programs' per se. Just changes. And - you have to think long term, not quick fixes. 3-4 yrs ago, I gave up caffeine. I started eating on small places. Just a small change, but it was one thing I chose to do. That's it. I did that for a while. Then 4 months later I chose something else, and so on. Just do things that are easy enough to do and know it's a life change - period. Do what you can handle and isn't a challenge. If you want to still eat ice cream - do it, but make sure you know it's only a small amount - not a full big dish of ice cream. Things like that. Don't give up - these quick fixes are what's dragging you down. Just think healthy life style. One day at a time. You can do this!!
