OMG...I'm on a diet too!

I would call myself an average. I'm a size 8 but feel like a 10. I'm 5'5 but feels like a lot shorter...

I have been a size double zero and went all the way to a size 14. I've had two children and have had a divorce. None of this makes me want to diet. None. I've been lucky to be able to slim down, but I have more luck exercising than dieting.

I've done the dieting, almost every diet. And you know what, they all sucked! They were gross diets, made me hungrier diets, I can't believe what's in the toilet diets. Diets are just horrible. For some people I have a deep understanding of why they are making that choice. I have friends who have been dieting for years and years. But no results, I mean maybe minimal results. I feel like the diets take the color, the taste and fun out of your life.

The way I see it, there are two different types of weight gain. One is the kind that you can't control because its in your genes, and the other is the kind where you can't get enough of that delicious food. It's true. I'm not trying to be mean or point any fingers, but I know where I've been and I have a right now to tell it like it is.

Why can't you people just enjoy the food you eat instead of scarfing it down, chugging it down with sugary drinks? Don't you want to slow down and smells the roses? Taste your food? See if you can guess all the spices you taste?

Why must we engorge ourselves until we can no longer fit into our jeans? Yeah they make stretch clothes but that's an excuse. Slip on shoes are an excuse. Black is an excuse. Why would you want to try and look slimmer when you should just want to be slimmer? EH!?

I'm amazed at all the foreigners that want to live in this country. We have to be the most unhealthy place to live and by choice! It's horrible.

I have to admit, I was a donut addict. I have stories of what I would do for a donut or two. I would eat like 3-4 every day. I could sit in my car and eat a dozen donuts all by myself. But a nice person told me what was going to happen to me if I continued. I didn't like what he said so I stopped eating those donuts.

You think all those celebrities have gorgeous skin and hair and bodies just because? Think again, they eat well, sleep well and most likely are very active. And you're probably saying to your self, 'I don't have time to do all of the above'. If you have time to take a shit and wipe your ass then you know you have time to exercise.

Forget the resolutions and just do it!

That's very interesting! I do find it that we (I) rather watch my tv. Show then exercise... what should I do to over come that?

Start doing a small amount of cardio everyday. You can start by doing squats before you get dressed in the morning, you can walk around your neighborhood 3 times a week. Those things can get your heart pumping. You'll burn calories slowly as you go. You'll eventually work up enough energy to start doing more.
