There are a zillion carb counting and calorie counting diets. They
require journaling, and counting and constant monitoring...it becomes
an all consuming ritual which, after a while as you will soon see
right here on ASD, it will come to an end. No one keeps up with all
that for a lifetime and that's what we are talking about...a lifetime.

Soon you can drop the log when you are ready. I logged for six weeks
for documentation purposes. Then I quit. I can eyeball a portion size
now and I flat don't want that much food anymore.
When I do over eat, I know it and it don't feel good.
