I've been reading about dieting.
Slow carb
Sugar Free
Weight watchers
Low carb
Raw food
Vegan
Blah blah blah.....
What to do with it all? What is really Maintainable?
This is!
-Eating healthy, whole foods.
-Don't over eat.
-Watch your portions.
-Exercise for strengthening your heart and body, NOT to lose weight.
AND
-Don't be STUPID.
Be sensible and realize that diets....don't.....work!!
I am:
- Cutting back on flour, sugar and fruit cuz I can and for me, it's a good thing to do!
Being smart and intelligent about how and what I eat. I'm diffusional to think I can
eat:
what I want
when I want
how much I want
And not gain weight and even think I'll lose!?
Unless........
I make those "wants" SMART that is!
If they aren't smart....and in fact stupid, then my results will show it!
If I want to make stupid choices, then I need to realize they will make me look stupid if I expect any other results and if I don't take responsibility and acknowledge I won't get the results I want!!
Stupid choices constantly IN ( my pie hole)
Stupid to think I'll get good results!
2 stupids don't make a smart.
When will people learn? If you eat crap you'll feel like crap and look like crap.
You aren't 15 any more and you DO in FACT need to be responsible for what you eat. Processed food is crap.
Ok...preachin' to the choir, I know.
I know what is the right thing to eat. I'm one smart cookie ( which I only indulge in on occasion) and I know that I know that I KNOW!!
Diets
Do
Not
Work
and neither can they be maintained....or if they can....who the heck wants to?
I like my cake
but I won't eat it for every meal
I love french fries
but I don't have them on a daily or even weekly menu...or flip, even monthly!
I adore baking
but it's saved for special occasions ( which do NOT include waking up, which is a gift every day and worth celebrating btw)
I love love love chocolate
and ok, so I eat it every day.....but it's in small quantities and it's actually good for me ( whatever, it's my little life indulgence, go find your own)
There ya have it.
My little rant about dieting and being stupid.
Which I'm not.....and I really believe others aren't either.....?
So I know better
And I'm doing better.......
for the most part.
hehehehe
Amen!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm learning a lesson in Love.
ReplyDeleteWe've been loved on so much over here in the form of food and drink....that it's all expanded my waste line and my thighs. Oh for the love of it all!
So I'm learning that I can receive Love without consuming all the sugar and "bad" fats that have been going along with it....and my friends don't feel I'm rejecting their offering......of love....just the food that has been served along side of it.
Feelin' the love on an even better level.... Taking me as I am :) best love of all!
And ps:
Thanks for the Amen!
