My new diet

I decided I'd try a new diet to lose these last 6 pant sizes of pregnancy weight. I've been doing it for 4 days now and it's been rough but I'm trying to hang in there (only cheated once - so far). My new diet consits of only drinking water and decaf iced tea (sweet tea of course). I've cut out all sodas and juices. That's it. That's my miracle diet and I expect it to help me lose like 30 pounds in 30 days. I know it's ridiculous to think that it's going to work but dieting is FREAKING HARD!!!! I so feel for all those people that have had to watch what they eat their entire lives (or longer than 1 meal for that matter). This is the first time ever in my life I've had to try to lose weight by dieting and/or exercising. How do people do this as a part of their lifestyle? I know I'm a whiner and it's completely ass crazy for me to be complaining about this and I should just have more will power and motivation. I have plenty of motivation by the way - I should be motivated by the entire closet full of size 4 and size 6 clothes that I have that don't fit my size 12 thass (that's thighs and ass). If I could only fit into those clothes, I could stop rotating the 4 pair of pants and 1 dress that currently fit me along with wearing mostly long sleeves and sweaters in the middle of summer. My motivation is to fit into those clothes but my will power is slim to none when it comes to denying myself food and drink. The stretchmarks and completely new and foreign shape to my boobs weren't enough to remind me of my pregnancy? Ugh, well - I'm off to drink my cup of coffee (oh yeah - part of my new diet allows me one cup of coffee - with flavored creamer per day, but this cup is getting pretty cold so I might have to top it off...just to warm it up).
