To diet, or not to diet ?
Lent is over. The first six weeks on the 'kill my will to live' diet are over. A visit to the Naturopath taught me that it's not over. When is it over? Who knows. I told her that I CANNOT GO ON! It's too tough.
She said okay.
Wow, I didn't expect that.
I'm supposed to do what I can. Which means making the right choices on my own. I'm allowed to eat like a human when I'm with others. I am going to be the most surrounded by people, social butterfly, chatty cathy the world has ever seen if it means I can eat sweets.
I don't think that's what she meant.
In any case, I declared the weekend diet free. Bring on the sugar. Bring on everything. Hello sugar crashes. Hello fatigue. Hello craziness.
Who knew the diet was actually making me a better and healthier person? Sugar really is not good. I know, I'm making ingenious statements.
But I love it.
I have to quit it. It's all or nothing. I can't just limit it. I'm a weak, weak person. A little bit is never just a little bit.
Starting tomorrow: the dreaded food diary. It's tedious, but I'm less likely to eat icing sweets if I have to write them down.
It's for the greater good of me being a healthy, happy person. Eventually, this won't even be a diet. It will just be a way of life. Sigh.
