Hi dolls, First post and I'm sorry it's a question/rant.
With new year just around the corner, I'm in weight loss mode.
Having tried every diet ever, and being a firm believer in frequent exercise and an active life, ive always been freaking confused why i've always been overweight/obese.
Then it occured to me, the only times I haven't been overweight or obese was when I wasn't dieting at all, was rarely exercising and was extremely carefree; I ate practically everything till I was stuffed, and then a slice of cake to top it off- and that whenever I eat "healthily" or am on a diet and exercise like it's my job and am highly stressed I always see the tummy pouch come on and the moment I even slightly slow down, the pounds PILE on. *edit- pounds and very obvious inches
If I've tried every diet imaginable, and exercise like it's my job, and am always stressed- do you think it's possible that my body simply rejects conventional health and weight loss methods and will only allow me to feel comfortable and love my body when I'm acting like calories/fat/sugar/carbs/exercise don't exist?
My have-always-been-dieting-since-i-was-two instincts tell me i'm being crazy and to burn calories; but my brain's telling me that if I always experience headaches on diets, never achieve anything aside from a few extra rolls of flab after all that effort (3 hours brisk walking a day + incidental leading up to an average of 20,000 steps, including religious calorie counting and strict diets!) , and that if it looks like the ole' muffin top comes from stress-
could it be that my personal answer to quick and permanent weight loss is simply living like a total lush and flipping the bird to conventional weightloss?
What should I do??
