I am typically a pretty well-behaved person and I follow
most of the rules. Just ask my husband, he makes fun of me because I won’t
cross an intersection if it doesn’t say it is "ok" to walk! For the 2 times a
year that I cook, I follow the recipes word-for-word, no substituting going on
here! I am one of those people that read
through the instructions to make sure that I use whatever it is properly.
Rule follower for sure…except when it comes to dieting. When
someone tells me I can’t have something it triggers something inside of me and
my first reaction is, oh yeah? Watch me!!!!! After I had Brooklynn I decided it
would be a good idea to try a fitness bootcamp where they are up in your face
while you do push-ups and other workouts. This was SERIOUS people; I wore a
weighted vest and had to yell out cadences while wearing war paint!!!! Anyway, the
diet plan for this was NO dairy, bread, soda, or pasta! I did great at the
workouts, but because my stubborn ass wouldn’t stick to the diet plan, I didn’t
get the results I could have. Such a rebel!!! Are you a rebel like me? How is
that working out for you? It sure as hell hasn’t worked out for me in the past.
Good thing I am not on a diet and have chosen to call it a lifestyle change or
who knows how bad I could screw up????
I hear ya! I've failed at every diet and finally the only thing that has worked for me is making it my life and not depriving myself. I called it "lateral shifts". If I'm craving ice cream, I make frozen banana "ice cream". It doesn't taste the same, but it satisfies. :)
