Changing your eating behavior and learning new ways to handle the internal emotional events that precede breaking your diet require practice, sometimes lots of it.
To be really effective, practice cannot be done just at the actual performance. Imagine a concert pianist not having practiced over and over again prior to her actual performance.
The same is true for weight loss and dieting. Like the concert pianist, you'll need to practice the elements of weight loss like self-regulation and thought identification before you use them to diet and lose weight.
Why don't you think of it this way: you will be building up your repertoire of skills, honing them, perfecting them prior to the time you'll "take them on the road" with you.
Break a leg!
