DIET is a pain!

[Nall]

I love cooking, even though im no chef. I adore looking up recipes and trying them, even though all the recipes I search for include the word "easy" in some part of their title haha. I've been on a diet for one month, I finished already fortunately. I did not ate a gram of sugar during my diet, only natural sugar like the one in bananas. I also didnt eat any trans fat or saturated fat during this month. It was a tough month but it was worth it, went from 90 pounds to 78 pounds Im a guy by the way, dont think im a girl because of my weight haha, I just have a speedy gonzales metabolism!
Anyways, what I missed the most during my one month diet was baking my delicious desserts !! That was kind of a torture

If you have any story related to diets or you are on a diet and wish to share something, GO AHEAD

Are you trying to achieve weight loss or are you dieting for other health reasons?

Are you trying to achieve weight loss or are you dieting for other health reasons?

I lost a pile of weight a few years ago. I pretty much ate everything I usually do except I just cut back on lots of starches, creamy substance, breads. I ran about 4-5 days a week, walked the dog for half an hour every day. I lost about 30 lbs in 4 months. I would stick to an Atkins "type" diet meaning prefominantly one of meats, fruits, and green veggies, two to three litres of water a day.....

I have been eating about the same way but, I am still having a tough time. How big of a dog should I get?

I lose weight when I cut out the bread & wine. Luckily I don't have a sweet tooth.

OMG, one of my legs weighs 78 pounds! Nall, I can only imagine that you are a young man. Starting to diet at 90 pounds...Just run everywhere you go. Running is great for you and I've never seen a fat runner.

I don't diet but I do watch my weight. I put on weight every time I cut down on my routine physical activities, whatever those may be. It's easier for me to keep my weight where I want it by staying physically active rather than trying to watch what I eat.

I watch my weight also. I watch it go up and up and up....

Stop eating sushi every day....

No way, Jose! Sushi is good for me! I've convinced myself of that!

Thats great, once you get the idea of what your body needs to lose weight properly like you did, its a lifetime benefit.
30 lbs in 4 months is excellent! And most people do gain weight because of overeating processed flours.

Hahaha good one.
If you are doing that same diet and still have a tough time, you don't need a dog...what you need is a horse to "walk" everyday :P.

Bread is nice, of course homemade bread. But its true, it does make people gain weight because its hard to eat the small portion that we all can.

LUCKY ! Sweet tooth is a curse.

Yeah that is the best way to keep a controlled body weight. Of course most of the people hate physical activity, including myself years ago. But the more physical activity, the less ansiety to eat you'd have, so its good in all aspects.

Hahahahah

That would be like telling a dolphin to stop swimming. No can do.

 

[Nall]

no way, jose! Sushi is good for me! I've convinced myself of that!

give us all some of that sushi then!

My weight aways goes up and down between 5 and 10 lbs. There was a diet I used when ever I wanted to lose 10 to 15 pounds quick. No it's not healthy but it worked. The cabbage soup diet. You can't go far from home, lol, but it will definetly take pounds off in a matter of days!

And walking always does it for me too. But now I've gotten kind of lazy and can't even make myself get to the track.

You need a dog that walks "you". Mine is a biggie so he needs quite a bit of exercise. And, he is quite vocal so, when it is time for his walk, there is no peace in the house until he gets it.
