Daily Summary or reflection: I admit that I every time I try to lose weight I either fail because it feels like I am on a diet.  I restrict what I eat oftentimes.  It isn't as if I don't know what I to do.  Some of it is because of poor choices. Sometimes it also about a fear of failure.  There is nothing fun about feeling like I am constantly afraid to fail.  The truth is, I have tried everything.  How do I overcome this fear of failure?  How do I overcome making decisions based on how much or how little I eat?  I am just tired of struggling, even with all of the help I am getting.
