Until I changed my relationship with food I didn't lose a pound either. But when I changed my relationship with food, everything changed.
I began to notice how I felt after eating and only ate the things that made me feel better. I would stop and relax completely before beginning to eat. I began to notice how I felt while eating. Following more advice from the same source, I ate until sated but not until full. After eating I stop and again relax completely before leaving the table. I started to eat slowly savoring every bite fully, noticing every nuance of flavor of each bite, the texture, etc. If it was not worth savoring it became not worth eating.
Over three years I have continued to lose weight. It was slow at first, but now I weigh what I did as a high school student. Before this I could not lose a single pound.
