One Step at a time

Today I have the mental challenges ahead, I am already in the "voices in the head" zone, questioning why I am bothering to even give this a go as I won't last it, but there has to be a way to get around them, apart from ignoring them and trying to gain some will power.
Others manage it, what makes me feel I need to give up before I have even started.
Maybe a more gradual approach is needed. Me and Veg are not suddenly going to be best friends, and just going into it head on has always caused me to stop eating rather than increase the good elements, so little and slowly maybe.

I heard tale of someone who gave up smoking, yet continued to carry a packet of cigarettes in their pocket. They did this for years, and when asked if they were a smoker, they replied. "YES I just haven't had one today yet." And when asked "so when was your last one?" they replied, "About 15 years ago"
Maybe the mantra needs to be. CARBS/ Sugar, Yes I eat them if I want, I just haven't had them yet today
