Slow and Not So Steady

I might be able to handle painfully slow weightloss if it was in anyway consistant. If the rules were hard and fast. There are just too many variables to track and it's exhuasting just to try. I sometimes think competative bodybuilders are the only ones insane enough and stubborn enough to so tightly control their diet. They watch proteins, carbs, fats, kinds of fats, kinds of proteins, good carbs, bad carbs...calories burned, calories consumed, time of day, in combinations...it makes my head spin.

I SO don't want losing weight to be a full or even part-time job.

So here I am one month out on this blog, down a pitiful two pounds and 1% of bodyfat. It's not even enough to change my waist measurements. I suppose that's the appeal of programs like Jenny Craig and Nutrisystems which control the food and all it's variables. People pay for someone else's grief on their behalf. I want to eat real food.

Apparently I'm still not one of those people who instinctively eats what they should and stops eating when they should. I don't suppse wanting to be will change my body chemistry or engrained thought paths.
