Cheers to Life and the Pursuit of Happiness in Health

Posted on April 15, 2016

I am so excited to start my first DietBet! I am a traveling foodie who splurges regularly! Previously, I would eat whatever and go to the gym to participate in intensive cardio to burn some of it off. That actually used to work for me. Oh, how I miss the days of having a flat stomach. Unfortunately, I am unable to work out like I used to. I have a 5 hour daily commute in combination with working 9 hours a day in a state that I don't live in. To say that I don't have the energy to workout on top of that is an understatement! My boyfriend has recently taken up working out and pursuing a healthier lifestyle with regards to food choices. I'm hoping that in combination with his support and the accountability of DietBet, I will be successful! I am hoping to learn new recipes that make healthy eating fun and easy! I recently purchased a vegetable spiralizer that I am excited to experiment with!

Best of luck everyone! Cheers to you!

Hi Victoria! I too am a foodie! I have found that one thing that has helped me successfully keep off 50 pounds is making sure I treat myself. If I don't have my favorite foods or allow myself to go to a special restaurant every now and then, I end up feeling deprived and eventually give up and go off the deep end. The key is not to say to myself "I've blown it" when I indulge. That is a recipe for me giving up. I just need to remind myself it's a choice like any other choice and I can move forward with a healthy meal next.As for the working out--working out is great. It's so important for our health and well being, but truly weight loss is 80% about the food we eat. You can't outrun your fork. So glad your joined our Dietbet game!! It's going to be great! Good luck to you and keep us posted on how you are doing!!
