I'm peeved!

So I'm on this blasted 100-calorie diet, lovely I say. And I gained a pound! WTF! Harumph!

You see, this couldn't happen in a book. A reader would not suspend disbelief. My cousin suggested that like in the episode of Malcom in the Middle, perhaps all my low-fat products are being replaced with full-fat. If only. They'd taste better!

Grouchy girl, signing off!

100-calories? Seriously?

Please tell me you meant 1000! Does 100 calories let you have lemon in your water? Wowie! Sorry you gained a pound...that has to be infuriating.

The problem with restricting your calorie intake is that it makes your body think that you're starving -- so it stores as much as it can as fat. Therefore, weight gain.

Low calorie diets, especially if you have any issues with blood sugar, are really a very bad idea.

Der, I meant 1000. I eat a LOT of vegetables, so I'm not hungry, just jonesing for chocolate and bread.

Are you exercising? Getting enough protein? This doesn't sound healthy. Sorry. I know what it is to want to lose weight so badly. Don't do this for too long, okay? I worry. :o)

my doctor gave me this diet - I modified it a bit with some suggestions from sites Nonny directed me to...I'm exercising - a 45 minute walk every morning. Running gives me headaches, so I can't up the intensity...unless I am chasing a toddler! Egad, those buggers are fast!
