Dieting Sucks. Not b/c I want to eat, but because I have yet to lose any weight. Nothing is more motivating than real numbers on the scale. I think it may be because of a certain monthly visitor, but I am just wondering if this is just one of many lies that women like to tell themselves about weight gain...
Here are some other favorites that I have used as an excuse:
a. Birth Control Pills Make me Fat (fill in any other medication here)
b. My metabolism is just slower (may be true... but if I am eating more... how do I know?)
c. I don't have skinny "genes" (Even if my Mom did pass down her love of peanut butter cups, I have been skinny and so has she... sooo not very logical)
d. Maybe I have a thyroid disorder? (or maybe I haven't exercised in 6 months)
e. I am big-boned (um, my engagement ring is a size 5 and a half. Enough Said.)
f. Red wine is good for you (so is white... margaritas....beer... martinis... are you going to drink that?)
g. I cannot do a lower carb diet because of my love of fruit (starburst, swedish fish, these are fruit right?)
h. I am too busy to exercise (our president fits in a jog here and there... so really?)
