Diet Insanity

What is that saying…the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result??

We tend to do that with weight loss for sure.

How many times have you tried to lose weight…and just like the last time you start cutting calories, trying to exist on salads, and literally try to work your ass off in the gym.

You might do ok for a few days, maybe a few weeks but sometimes we’re just lucky if we make it to noon….

Pushing through hunger… white knuckling it through cravings…feeling deprived…being sore and exhausted…

Is all that really necessary for weight loss?  Do we really have to live like that just to lose weight? 

I got to the point where I wasn’t so sure…but I did know I wanted to feel good again – inside and out – I wasn’t quite ready to give up!

I needed to figure this out and it couldn’t just be more of the same old diet bs…

I needed a no-nonsense, real life plan that I could stick too, not just some set of “diet rules” that someone who never had a weight problem tells my I should do.

I call the way I eat my diet – just for lack of a better word but for the first time ever I don’t feel like I’m “dieting”.

Learning how food works in my body and figuring out the foods that work best for me (because just because it worked for Kelly down the street doesn’t mean it will work the same for you!) made all the difference.  

I absolutely love the food that I eat and I never feel hungry…I’m not thinking about food all freaking day long.
