How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Perfectly Good Reasons To Say No To Diets

in Uncategorized on 03/29/10

Cake2When I’m carrying around that extra 5 pounds…err Okay 8 pounds, my boobs look great.  I actually have boobs!  Why when you drop a couple of pounds are the boobs always the first to go?

When I am eating whatever I want I have convinced myself I sleep better.  Why?  Cause I have had my “tensies”.  You know…10ses  I don’t know how to spell it, but I know what it is.  That fabulous meal of snackage between dinner and breakfast.  Keeps the tummy full all through the night and I sleep like a baby. 

If I say “NO to Diets” then I can say “YES” to Chocolate Cake, Specialty Coffees, Pasta, Potatoes and Popcorn. These things make me happy.  It’s a simple joy.

Not dieting.  Not weighing myself.  Saving much unneeded wear and tear on that fairly fancy new scale that mocks me from the bathroom floor.  That is kind of like “conserving” right?  So I am doing right by the environment. 

The number 1 reason to Say “No to Diets”.  This Sassy Mamma, becomes a candy craving carb deprived diva, and then it is all too easy to unleash the cranky sourpuss that dwells beneath!

Ahh, I think that is enough justification for today.

Healthy eating can wait one more week.  At least until I eat all the Easter Candy that is coming our way!

Mwah!

      My healthy eating is waiting another week too…to maybe two.

      Thanks for stopping by!

      Yup. Spot on about the bobbies shrinking. Me too. My B cup bras are now cavernous (but maybe that more about having kids and nursing than weight loss, sigh) and they echo this refrain…”what happened to our inhabitants???”

      When I DO lose weight, the girls down-size even more. Ass just continues ambling happily along.

      I just commit to the gym and eat what I want. This will catch up to me in another 10 years I am sure. LOL.

      The absolute worse time to diet is between Thanksgiving and Easter! There is no chance with all of that temptation! Someone should have spead these holidays out more evenly!! Peggy

      I have to agree w/what someone else said — love the fuller boobs that come with the weight, but not the extra chub in my mid-section! 😀

      funny… but maybe try to think of it as a LIVEit…rather a DIEt…. LIFESTYLE CHANGE…one baby step at a time will make lasting choices.
      Enjoy the candy…just in MODERATION

      The moment I start worrying about what I am eating, is the moment I start OVER eating.
      It stinks.
      I worry no more. 🙂

      I wish I had read this yesterday…right before I started a “Biggest Loser” contest with my husband and daughter.

      I need to make a post “Good reasons not to exercise”…seems I have been coming up with a lot in the past {gulp} year!

      Sounds good to me! I want some cake and pasta.

      LOL! You’re so right about the boob thing!

      I guess it helps if one is genetically gifted… I’ve never had to diet, thankfully – keeping active and eating what you want (but in moderation) sure makes a life sweet!

      But if I got fat from slow metabolism or some kind of disorder, then I would no doubt think about cutting back on some stuff.

      Probably.

      Maybe.
