My Cheatin’ Heart

The good news is that I’m over my bout with the flu or whatever that was.  It was short-lived and thankfully I only missed one day of work.  That day when I stepped on the scale I was delighted, though not surprised, that I was down 2 pounds.  But I also knew I was dehydrated and it would quickly come back, which it did.

Now I’m in a weird place.  I allowed dairy back in a bit.  Then I had a couple baked steak fries.  Then I had a bit of chocolate, then a bit of carrots (all this week…not just today!) and now I’m feelin’ fat! 

I also find myself thinking about the long term….what if I just did a “balanced” eating plan?  What if I had a spoonful of brown rice? 

Jimmy Moore says that you should find what works for you and do it everyday for the rest of your life.  So does Paleo work for me?  Does low-carb?  Clearly, when you look at the weight chart on my BLOG, it appears to work better than high-carb/low-fat….but is there anything that works better?  I’ll be dead before I’m skinny, at this rate.

I just feel like nothing really, really works for me.  Everything works for a little while, and then it stops.  So today I’m discouraged and wish I could follow the Brownie Diet for a few days!
