Honestly, every time I have successfully dieted for any meaningful length of time, it just started on a random day.

Last time it was a random Friday in February. I stuck to it til the following September and lost about 50 pounds. I've put a lot of that back on, so maybe today's the next one.

All successful habits start the day you decide to do them. If you plan to start them in the future, they're way less likely to succeed.

(The above based on nothing but my own gut feelings and experience.)
