I read somewhere (or maybe I heard it) that there comes a time in a woman's life when she simply can't eat the same things she used to when she was younger.
I always had a big appetite, but as time went on, my metabolism slowed down.
That's only part of it.
Processed foods were giving me severe heartburn. I gained a lot of weight on microwave foods.
Over the years, I also became less tolerant of dairy foods. I love dairy. It bugs me that I'm lactose-intolerant, but I'd rather not experience the indigestion every single night.
Even chocolate was starting to bother me. That's kind of sad. I loved chocolate so much.
I eliminated these things from my diet, almost entirely.
And...I am noticing a huge difference....
I'm maintaining my desired weight and my skin doesn't break out anymore. Very rarely, at least.
Cutting out certain foods wasn't really the end of the world. I found a substitute milk that I enjoy (almond/coconut blend), and once in a while I let myself have a little cheese or some greek yogurt.
In the end I had to ask myself "how bad did I want it?" and "which is more important: health or taste buds?"
Salads are really yummy though. And fruits and veggies. I am not totally deprived.
Good luck on this weight-loss journey, my Buddies. I am with you all the way. You can do it. Keep it up. :)
