Top 10 Ways to Avoid Sabotaging Your New Year’s Diet Resolution
From Shari:
10. Imagine your IC trainers are omniscient – the evilness of the next workout will be directly proportional to how much junk you ate today. Ask yourself, “Is this really worth 10 extra burpees?â€
9. If it’s marketed to children, has a cartoon character on the front, or comes in “fun shapes,†JUST DON’T.
8. Vente, Grande, Large, Triple, Double,…if you don’t want these words to define you, then don’t let them describe what you consume.
7. Make sure 75% of your food is as close to its natural form as possible. Mmmmm…I bet your homemade Bolognese sauce will completely transform those wheat stalks.
6. Your (choose one) unsupportive, hyper-critical, cake-baking, coffee and pastry wielding, nacho-craving, chocolate proffering, frappuccino drinking friend/relative? You’re busy. Indefinitely.
5. No matter how much aioli accompanies your fancy shmancy Pomme Frittes they’re still deep fried.
4. Snap Pea Crisps, Taro Chips Veggie Sticks, Carrot Chips, Kettlecorn. Are not vegetables.
3. Never. ever. consume. anything. you. don’t. have. to get. out. of. the. car. to. order. EVER.
2. Donuts = deep fried rings of white flour and sugar. ‘Nuff said.
1. They don’t call it a Big Gulp for nothin’!
mmm…. deep fried rings of white flour and sugar….mmm….
I meant to say “YUK!!”
mmm….Big Gulp…mmm….brain freeze…
a great top 10 list!
Shari’s mind at work. Nice.
Gosh, I have a long way to go. Sugar’s my weakness, and um…anything fried is yummy. Happy new year!
i had a dream that tsan brought powdered sugar donuts to the IC…
i was eating them and they got all crumby and i had to vacuum.
LOL Juliet! That sounds like one of my dreams.
Hey, has anyone noticed our new blog category? LOL!!
My favorite is number 8 btw Shari. Hilarious!
Okay, all good except for the one about ordering food from your car window. For those times when you GOTTA do drive-thru, four words: ARBY’S. MARTHA’S. VINEYARD. SALAD. Even better when you use just 1/3 of the raspberry vinaigrette that comes with.
I have another one, inspired by someone from bootcamp (who shall remain nameless – he can out himself):
Never eat bread pudding for breakfast. Especially before bootcamp.
“Never eat bread pudding for breakfast. Especially before bootcamp.”
There can be only one person who can utter such words.
Who eats bread pudding?
i never met a bread pudding i didn’t like, sweet, savory i ain’t picky. but i would never eat some before class…almond croissant sure…
I am one with the bread pudding no longer. However, I am still sweet and savory!!!! Happy new year!
Let me clarify that Art no longer has the bread pudding because he gave it away, not because he earned a shirt (although he came pretty damn close).
