This is what I thought waaaay before I lost 70 pounds:

"My body cannot lose weight. I cannot be skinny; it's just the way my body is."

LOL! How silly.

Life is short and I should be able to enjoy it, I don't do drugs, I'm not addicted to alcohol, so I should be able to eat whatever I want, when I want. Right?

WRONG!!

My excuse from 1&1/2 years ago:

"I'm pregnant! It wouldn't be healthy for me to lose weight now, I'm supposed to be gaining!"

What a joke, I allowed myself to go completely out of control and used my pregnancy as an excuse.

Default My "reasons"
Grew up a fat kid then lost the weight in HS after voluntarily attending an intensive six month program. When I returned home I was so disgusted by how differently I was treated by males. All the sudden men who treated me as if I were invisible wanted to get in my pants, schmucks. I gained weight pretty quickly after that, and married a man who loves me for ME and not my dress size. I honestly used the excuse for many years that I didn't want to be thin the A-holes of the world would remain visible to me. LOL, terrible, I know.
Now I am more concerned with my health than the opinions or actions of others.

I'm pretty sure my calories are low so this giant chocolate cake won't hurt a bit.

I don't look THAT bad.
My blood sugar's not THAT high.
I don't have to work out this week because I have a cold....or next week because I am getting over having a cold...or the following week because I am tired after my cold!
I'll just eat this one piece of cake.

F%@! it.

Think that sums up most of the feelings, excuses and actual language that I use for any poor food decision.

2) I'm not eating much anyway
3) Eating this way one day couldn't hurt
4) I have no time
5) too upset
6) It's too cold out
7) If the weather was warmer...
8) I can't cook
9) I'll do it tomorrow

Chewing before swallowing? Putting down my fork in between bites?! I don't have time to eat mindfully!

I'll start exercising once I'm not so heavy and self conscious (I got rid of this excuse just this week)!

It's fine to eat an 800+ calorie meal of a burger and fries, since I only ate a piece of fruit so far today. I've been so healthy... I deserve a break!

It's snowing too hard out to exercise/is too windy/too much rain/the gym is too far.

It's not fair that I have such slow metabolism.

I gained so much weight because of a thyroid tumor (which is true to some extent except I used it as a great excuse not to control it and ate every kind of junk imaginable)

It costs too much to eat healthy.

I can't afford a gym membership.

If I gain anymore THEN I'll start losing. If I get to 190. If I get to 200. If I get to 220 THEN I'll start losing.

I don't have any will power.

I need motivation, I'll wait till it comes.

I've ruined my metabolism.

It's too hard.

ETA:



I'll never be able to have the body I used to, so why even bother?
oh man, these are me 100%
