Fat to Fit Blog VI: Lack of treats and internet hilarity

Main thing I will say about today to keep this blog confessional of how annoyed I am that I can't seem to bring myself to have a proper decadent treat! Last night I had a terrible meal, I went in with that attitude with I'll treat myself but as soon as I heard 'let's share a combo platter' I should probably go for the healthy option, I ordered the seabass and it was truly awful I should have gone all out and had steak and chips, out of the combo platter I only had 1 onion ring, 1 chicken wing and 4 potato wedges not exactly a treat more of a slight grazing.

Tonight I planned for cocktails but they were sadly cancelled but I still haven't had a treat, I feel like I should send myself to my pantry and pick something since I've not eaten much today and I still haven't really given myself a food treat since on the diet. I don't want to get too obsessed so it's got to be healthy to dive in a unhealthy snack once a week just to keep yourself sane and the fried/cheesy/savoury/carb addiction at bay!

In other news I thought I'd add some funny weight loss things I've come across on the internet just to keep it light hearted :)

Ten New Diets by Judy Pokras
You've tried Dr. Stillman's Quick Weight Loss Diet, the Sardine Diet, the Grapefruit Diet, and more, but you're still lugging those extra pounds around. What's a food lover to do? Good news! Ten new diets have just arrived on the scene. One of them is bound to do the trick.
1. The Internet Diet. You lose weight because you're so addicted to being online, you don't eat for days at a time.
2. The Fantasy Diet. You eat a Collard Wrap while fantasizing you're really eating Death by Chocolate.
3. The Play With Your Food Diet. You're so busy making a castle out of your mashed potatoes, you forget to eat them.
4. The Food Chess Diet. You and a friend play chess using food tidbits as chess pieces. You are only allowed to eat when you capture your friend's players. You lose the game and you lose weight.
5. The Rolling Table Diet. You sit on a chair on wheels, trying to eat at a table on wheels. The motorized floor under your table is constantly shifting, so you don't get to eat much, and thus lose weight. (This is similar to The Seasick Diet, but takes place in your own land-lubbing home.)
6. The Fisherperson Diet. A fisherperson holds a pole whose end is attached to a morsel of food in your mouth. Every time your try to bite down on the food, the fisherperson pulls the food away.
7. The Puffed Food Diet. All your favorite foods are re-made in the style of puffed wheat or puffed rice. Your Cheese Ravioli is now mostly air, so you don't gain any weight.
8. The Mock Puffed Food Diet. In this diet, all the foods you like to eat are made of styrofoam, to resemble the Puffed Food Diet. Now you can't eat the food at all. (You try to, and spit it out.) You really lose weight.
9. The Edible Flowers Diet. You are only allowed to eat edible flowers. You get bored with them and eat nothing, thus lose weight.
10. The Love Diet. You munch playfully on your sweetheart's hand. You gain no calories; you lose weight. Your sweetheart loses interest in you because s/he preferred you with love handles.
