Diet This

It has been decided ... to diet! Why? Here it is ... I'm fat! No ... let me rephrase, I'm getting fat (can you say denial). It will be tough. There's no doubt about it. I'm swimming against the current with this one. We all know what happens with our weight around this time of the year ... a known trend ... up! The holidays are coming and there's one thing we love to do ... eat ... till we sleep. I'm not afraid to say it ... I love to eat! But that might be the problem. Actually, the real problem is that I love rice and bread and bread ... did I mention rice! I really love rice ... white fluffy rice! Damm you Atkins ... make me some carb free rice.

Its been since Monday that I've eaten any food that contained a high carb count. But I gotta tell ya, I'm definitely itching for something that is full of carbs. The other day we were in Safeway to pick up a few necessities and discovered that there were only a handful of products we can purchase while on this diet. They were ... water, meat, eggs, and cheese. What a variety?! I'll have the meat ... with some cheese ... might as well drop an egg on there! And this is suppose to help me loose weight?! Anyway, something I never do, I checked the nutritional value chart on some of the products we usually buy. I found that carbs are everywhere ... you can't hide. Its a government conspiricy .. they want Americans to be fat! Show everyone else that we can't be pushed around. But seriously, I couldn't believe it. Not only were they high but they're EVERYWHERE! Like I said ... its gonna be tough.

So, the next time you go shopping, just for fun count your carbs. See exactly how fat you're getting. Come on admit it .. you're getting fat ... they're everywhere remember!

But, if you've found a way to continue to eat mad carbs and loose weight ... show me the money!
