the usual stages

day 1 of my diet: "i really want to eat this donut. ehhhh too guilt-inducing. not on my first day."
day 2 of my diet: "huh. that's weird; i actually feel pretty good. it's healthy hungry!"
day 3 of my diet: "dammit i just want a snack i miss snacks remember snacks? those were good."
future predictions:
day 4: "the squirrels outside my window are starting to look pretty tasty"
day 5: "i. have. no. energy. this can't be good. maybe i'll skip kempo today."
day 6: "well i ate that donut yesterday... and the rest of that bag of chips today, but other than that i'm still doing okay."
day 7: "fuck it i'm ordering pizza."
for the record, i hate diets, and most of you would tell me i don't need one. but i'm starting to change shape and i don't like change. also, i want to up my muscle:fat ratio so i'm exercising a lot more. sitting in an office all day is really not good for nutritional or cardiovascular health-- and it's not just the obvious. i tend to get inert, and inexplicably exhausted, and don't want to do anything unless i force myself. and work + computers + snacks are a natural menage a trois-- eating out of boredom and all that.

Date: 2009-06-04 03:56 pm (UTC)I tell you, if there is one thing (besides wetware so I can have a internal iPod) I'd like is for someway to change our bodies internal 'clock' in regard to body fat. I mean we get fat because humans for about 99.9% of our time on Earth have lived a feast or famine existence and that pudge we put on today keeps us alive tomorrow. It would be nice to 'turn off' or at least down that feature.
