I'm having a hard time coping with my weight gain. Whenever one of those skinny girls walks by, I narrow my eyes at her and look at my own expanding belly...and feel bad about myself. I haven't gone to the gym in a couple of months. I'm just so tired when I leave work, it's hard to motivate myself to do much besides sit on the couch.
Thinking that maybe a diet would help, I put myself on the Special K diet. It's the only diet that didn't seem too bizarre or not veggie friendly. My doctor told me to go on the South Beach Diet. So, I went online to find out more about it and what I found out is...if I go on the South Beach Diet, I'll die! There isn't much more than meat on that one. The damn doc knows that I don't eat animal! Bitch. So, the Special K diet basically means that you run around buying everything Kellogs has on their list and munch that stuff all day. The protein water sucks ass, but the rest of it tastes just fine - like cereal.
So, I keep nagging myself to hit the gym and guilt tripping when I don't. I really don't mind the gym once I get there, but it's getting there that's the problem. I always seem to find an excuse not to go.
I hate being fat. So, why am I being so lazy?

I'm curious... what do you eat for protein? I've tried not eating meat, but I can't seem to find a protein that works as well... I end up feeling dizzy if I don't have meat.
Also, could you send me your email addy? my blog is moving, just in case you stop by. :)
The combination of beans & rice is a complete protein, easily absorbed by the body. There are also nuts, like peanut butter, that are high in protein. A big source are the imitation meats, like Gardenburgers or "not-chicken" soup. A lot of companies out there are making veggie foods these days.
I'm not a fan of beans at all... but I've had Gardenburgers before and they were all right. I LOVE rice. I should look into this more. :)
you should at least try it out for a bit and see how you like it.
i think i will--i have about 15 pesky pounds that won't get lost. what kinds of things do you eat for breakfast, lunch & dinner? (if you don't mind being my diet change advisor.) :)
