So I found
The Power of Habit to be pretty empowering. Just how empowering, I'm ready to put into practice. Here's the deal: I'd like to lose eight pounds, and if I'm successful, then an additional eight pounds, for a total weight loss goal of sixteen pounds. I know from the last few months that simply wishing the weight away doesn't work. Unfortunately. However, I think that this time I have a better understanding of what I need to do to succeed.
