I have lost 5 lbs. Simply by moving more and monitoring what I shove into my pie hole (no pie, but plenty of other yummy foods). I am feeling proud and inspired and ready to make June another productive month of loss.
So imagine my surprise when I visited The Daily Plate and found that in exchange for my success, I am now allowed 40 calories less a day! Lance Armstrong, you bastard!
Wait, wait, wait. Calm down, Gal. What is 40 calories, exactly? 5 baby carrots. Or 1 cup of turnips. Or 2 cups of radishes.
I know I can manage to make it through each day with 5 fewer baby carrots, 1 cup fewer turnips, or even 2 cups less radishes. It won't even take any self restraint!
I wish I'd known long ago how uncomplicated the secret to a healthier lifestyle is -- move more, eat less. If you need help sticking with it, again I recommend livestrong.com, the home of The Daily Plate.
Haha, that's funny. But keep up the good work and I bet you won't even miss those few calories.
ReplyDeleteFive pounds - good for you!
ReplyDeleteThat was always the thing that killed me about Weight Watchers points - lose ten pounds, lost a point. (That's why I liked their no-points plan, on which I was quite successful.)
