Why do I ever doubt clean eating?

I keep hoping that something else will make me lose weight fast. Really fast. If I could wake up tomorrow 118lbs lighter than I am right now I would think it a miracle. And then I would go shopping. So I flit from program to program and eating fad to eating fad. I know what works for me:

  • Carbs late in the day make me tired and hungry. 
  • Denying myself chocolate all the time makes me cranky. 
  • Peanut butter makes me want to binge.
  • I cannot eat 1oz of cheese unless 1oz is all I have.
  • If I don't eat breakfast when I get up it will take me about four hours to eat. And then I eat a lot.
  • Steaming broccoli when I am still hungry at the end of a meal
  • As tired as I am when I get up at 4:30 and workout I feel better the rest of the day.
  • And when I don't eat clean nothing goes right.
So I know what I need to do. I need to eat clean. Whole grains, lean proteins, lots of fruits and vegetables. Planning my meals - for the whole week, not just the next day. Make sure dinner will be quick to cook when I get home or in the Crockpot before I leave (I hate eating dinner after 8PM all the time!). Use the advice, recipes, support and insight I get from my online friends, my blogger friends, my clean eating friends, my magazines, and my smart wonderful hubby - the hubby that just bought me a new George Foreman grill/waffle maker/baking dish/slider maker! Should be here Monday night and I cannot weight!

I am going to go snuggle up with the hubster. I am excited for my plan for tomorrow - for my plan for my life. I feel good.
