Jobs
I am home for the summer so that I can live with my parents free of rent while I work. I have a feeling that the only job I am going to end up with is going to make it hard to stick to any diet plan. Almost all the job openings where I live are in the resruant bussinesses. I love cooking and I have worked this type of job before so I know what it will be like to go back into that line of work. You tend to end up eating the same food your serving to people, and there is easy acess to so much of what you’ve promised over and over you would stay away from. Ice cream, sodas, fried foods, and much much more. Its hard not to give into temptation when you are around it every day. I am going to do my best not to, but I am not makeing any more promises to myslef. I know that the more I tell myself that I won’t ever eat any of that stuff no matter how good it looks the more likely it is that I will eat more then I should of it. So I have come up with the plan to limit what I eat and that is all that I can do. There will be times that I have no other options of what to eat while I am working. When I am not working however I fully intend to keep a tighter set of restrictions on. No sodas or sweets for me on my days off. A balance between the good and the bad that is all we really can do. Going to either of the extreams could be unrealistic or unhealthy. I am just trying to find a place that is some where in the middle. Healthy, but not cutting out all the yummy foods that have been deemed bad for one reason or another.
You can do it! At first you will see you have to make an effort to eat healthy, but eventually it will become a habit and you will feel great about yourself when you realize that you have accomplished your goal! The important thing is to not beat yourself up when you slip up. You are only human and it will happen! Just make sure you keep a focus the next time you sit down to eat!
