A coworker went on a keto diet ...another went on a fasting diet (fasts for 16 hours a day). I talked to them and all they told me about the rules they now need to follow...I said screw that and I went on a "don't be dumb" diet and I honestly think I've found something I can do. I started last week and I'm still going strong. With other meal specific diet with many rules I found myself just frustrated over what I can no longer have that I gave up on the diets because I didn't want to be missing out. With my new approach I don't put anything "out of bounds" I eat when I'm hungry but I decided just not to be dumb about it portion-wise. Eat till I'm no longer hungry. I can get by with one beer not 4 when at a party. I can have the three wing sampler not 24 wing platter when I'm out with friends. I'm not calorie counting but I honestly believe I'm eating less then 2000 / day. I'm not exercising just yet I'm just focusing on food. I stopped drinking juice I now just drink water. I didn't restrict myself on the "bad stuff" I just decided that its not worth it today...maybe tomorrow. My meals now consist of mainly vegetables and I'm challenging myself to find ways to prepare it with spices instead of oils or creams. I want a wrap but I don't want the carbs so I learned about a lettuce leaf wrap I'm going to buy. I'm not on a diet...but I am...I hope to see some positive results with this approach.
TLDR: Don't make dieting a bigger deal then it needs to be
