Diets and Happiness?
Recalling that phase of life when I dieted, a new diet plan offered two attractions: weight loss and euphoria.
Every time I started a new diet, the world opened up and the possibilities were endless. I was going to lose weight. Answers would fall into place and I would finally be happy. Although diet-induced happiness was short-lived, somehow with each new diet I hooked into that euphoria and believed its promise.
By focusing on the internal, rather than external solutions I have discovered deeper happiness and new possibilities. The happiness I feel these days is more real, more down to earth and certainly more long-lived.
