Skinny Dreams in Skinny Jeans

Just a little side note about the last post:
My mom just informed me that it sounded weird that I'm talking about eating all these pretty unhealthy things AND saying I want to lose a drastic amount of weight in a years time.  She said drastic weight loss is about sacrifice.  As a serial "attempted weight loser" I can say that that is definitely true depending on WHY you want to lose the weight.  If you want to lose it temporarily or fast then YES, by all means cut out all of the good things that may cause you to gain weight or hold on to weight.  But what I'm doing is a lifestyle change.  I know that cutting out foods that I love will not work for me and will make this transition 10x harder than it has to be.  I've done it before and it doesn't work FOR ME.  I'm not speaking for everyone trying to lose weight.


The reason why I say "moderation" so much is because you can eat WHATEVER you want and still lose weight as long as it's in moderation.  If I ate 1,000 calories worth of chocolate a day and that's all I ate, I'd be extremely malnourished, but you're darn skippy I will still lose weight.  It's simple:  if you burn more calories than you consume in a day you're going to lose weight.


I am making a lifestyle change, I'm not dieting.  I'm not giving up the foods I love but learning and training myself not to overdo it.  To enjoy food and not be consumed by it!  Or over-consume it lol


I hope this clears up any questions you 3 people reading may have lol


Love,
