I am a terrible dieter because I feel instantly deprived and miserable about the thing(s) I've not allowed myself. If I decided never to eat french fries again I would wake up craving them at 8 a.m. and it would bother me all day long, every day, even if I never actually at them daily (or ever at 8 a.m.).Kelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256355039094301578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30354864.post-84423494181177405152011-05-18T09:52:23.087-07:002011-05-18T09:52:23.087-07:00The mental stuff is always my biggest hurdle.

Weird, but if I spend all day trying to avoid sugar I eventually eat it anyway, usually after dinner or right before bed. At least if I eat it in the morning, I have more time to work it off.

It was EXCRUCIATING to remove it, and I felt totally meh about the effects, too, in the end.Tesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18085712930407611861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30354864.post-6844581933720078712011-05-18T08:42:16.031-07:002011-05-18T08:42:16.031-07:00"basically what I figured out was this: meh.&..."basically what I figured out was this: meh."

I think the tendency is for the people who have great success with it to talk a lot about it, and everyone else to be quieter because they're afraid they did it wrong or that someone will SAY they did it wrong---and so then we get a tipped impression of what's going on.Swistlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13126937282657655091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30354864.post-23221192152328523202011-05-18T08:16:34.260-07:002011-05-18T08:16:34.260-07:00Why deny yourself one small pleasure?

I am going to bet the meh's are coming from lack of sleep and an overall lack of energy.<br /><br />I have DRASTICALLY cut back on my sugar intake and now eat only salad or BLT for lunch EVERY DAY and I don't really feel any better energy wise but my clothes are definitely fitting better.<br /><br />So I think it all just depends on moderation. But everyone already knows that ;)Nik-Nakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14776544256283026910noreply@blogger.com
