DIET: ISN'T IT BORING SOMETIMES...?

               Yes it is and neither nutritionists nor doctors woul tell you that. I've complited my 3rd mounth of being on a diet and i admit that i had ups and downs. It's always good in the beginning, you are focused on your diet and detirmined. But as time goes by, you might miss somethings...For me it wasn't the deicious big meals, fast food or popcorn, it was cakes of all kind. I'm very fond of sweets as you can guess. When you're ona a diet, you get your reward by loosing weight of course. But there were times that i couldn't resist. Whenever we visit our relatives, friends or they visit us, someone always brings a cake. So there i was sitting infront of my devil. First i didn't except even a tiny bite, but when everybody left and i was alone with it...It started with i bite, a slice and another one until it's finished. The thing is i didn't feel guilty at all. I've lost 8 kg in total. It may have been more if i didn't have this kind of weaknesses once in a while, but i rather have this way. Because the thing i'm afraid of most is after i have my ideal weight, eaiting too much of the things i missed. So whenever i really miss something (the one above was definitely an extraordinary situation) i have a small piece of it. But before that i calculate the calorie and eat it instead of something. This means sometimes being hungry for hours  when you consider that just a little piece of cake has the same calorie with my dinner,but i survive. I don't do it often of course, maybe once in 14 days. My nutritionist doesn't know about it, i'm sure she wouldn't approve. But we are human right? We can't just program ourselves to eat specific things, although it would be great.
