My feelings on dieting



A friend of mine posted this on Facebook and I got a kick out of it. I feel the same way! I have tried diets and stuck with them for a week or so, but never maintain. The latest thing I did that I stuck with longer than anything I have ever stuck with was the 30 day green smoothie challenge from Simple Green Smoothies. I really loved the recipes and Cody actually drank them too! I don't think we made it to the whole 30 days, there were a few at the end we missed cause we just got busy in the morning, but I am amazed at how well we stuck with it. Delish. 
I am working on just trying to add more fruits and veg to my diet, eating whole grains, keeping carbs low cause of PCOS. But yes, I still eat cupcakes (my sister just brought me one she made, blackberry lemon, yum!) and yes I bought girl scout cookies. And I am learning to be OK with that. I am learning to accept my choices and not have a breakdown or hate myself every time I have a treat. So, yes, being on a diet is like riding on a bike on fire. :) But eating well is like riding a unicycle on a rainbow (that sounds nice, right?).
