Another Year, Another Pound or Two

Every New Year, I make a resolution to try to lose the pounds I've gained over the last year. Every year, I try, for a while, then end up gaining even more. I'm one of those who have lost hundreds of pounds, but have gained hundreds and a little more. I once went on Weight Watchers and lost 70 pounds. Two years later, I weighed more than when I started on WW. I hear this so often, from so many people, and I wonder, why do we even continue to try? It ends up the same way over and over, but we are always so sure that this time will be different; that we'll keep the weight off this time. OK, I'll try it again, one more time, but when I do lose weight, this time, I'll keep it off! Yeah, right...
