Another time, I was listening to the radio to two guys who were nutritionalists. They said that cutting down your calories to lose weight was a myth. Huh? Really? What's that about? The idea is to burn more than you take it, so what's the deal? I went to their site and found nothing on this subject. (go figure)
As you can probably tell, I'm slowly starting to think about trying this again but I already feel defeated. I simply cannot choke down food I hate for a long period of time without snapping and raiding my favorite aisle at the grocery. But then I watch those shows on Discover Health channel of those really obese people who are bed-ridden and I think to myself that I could be on my way and it scares me!
You might say "controlled portions" but the portion size has never been a problem. I actually cannot eat that much - I get full quickly. So maybe I just have to move more. But the last time I did this, and every time before that, I hit that plateau and cannot seem to break it no matter what I tried. And that's why I feel defeated before I start. All I know is that something's got to change.
Don't mind me, I'm just sulking right now and getting this off of my chest. Blogging this helps me to face it and I've been avoiding this for a long time now. Just look at the amount of time between my posts.
