I have got to say this! Most of my childhood and and as an adult I have been overweight and because of it, I have always had diet information shoved in my face by people. My mom mostly who would make me watch Fit for Life videos or try diet pills when I am 12 , but who would keep a half gallon of ice cream in the freezer at all times, or my aunts who have never had a weight issue a day of their life who would exclaim portion control when I would eat.   

So it kind of hit a nerve when a woman at work (who is overweight & trying to lose) interrupted me when I was explaining my food plan to a co-worker who asked how I lost so much weight. In the middle of explaining how much protein I was taking in, she interrupts to say "No that's not how you do it" and began talking about salads and fad diets.
 
I may have one extra tool than my co-workers, but I'm glad that my Nut has helped me and learning how my body works and what it needs and how people here from OH give me inspiration to try new healthy recipes and my eating habits are getting better and better!

I wonder how that bag of Family Size Lays potato chips and Dip that she opened and ate at 7am this morning is fueling her body...........lol

.so she's on the FAMOUS....POTATO CHIP DIET!! I tried that.one...it didn't work either!
Yeah fad diets like Atkins, cabbage soup, carb addicts diet where people eat all of one thing/ eliminate or severely restrict entire food groups ... for weight loss are totally bogus. No one can sustain the weight loss for more than 5 yrs let alone for life ...but they sell plenty of books!!
My ultimate goal would be ....to be on a diet..that isn't a diet. ahhh perchance to dream..
...sure.would be nice tho...dreamin is free! lol

Haha When I saw this, I was like, "Oh my god, please tell me she isn't eating that for breakfast ..."  You show 'em!

(And barf for potato chips at 7 AM.  I can't eat anything like that at 7 AM without wanting to just wretch, and I'm pre-op!)

HA HA, YEA RIGHT! 
  The only thing I ate before 10am pre-op was Coffee! mmmmm coffeeeeeee
  But Atleast we know she didn't eat the whole bag in that morning for breakfast. She brought out the rest of the bag to finish them off today......
  O and yesterday she got mad because I wouldn't walk with her on 15 min break. I don't think she realizes that its gonna take a whole lotta walking to burn all that dip off!!!
