Operation Skinny Bitch (OSB)

I must talk about this. Please don't judge me. I should state that this "skinny bitch" diet/lifestyle is sugar-free, vegan, organic. Whoa.
It's day 16 on OSB. So far so good? I think so.

I need to state that this diet/lifestyle switch-a-roo is not about becomming skinny or being a skinny bitch. I am a petite person--hello? I'm 5 foot 1/4 inch tall. Therefore every 1/2 lb I gain is noticeable-very annoying. But as with all women, I have my problem areas. My biggest problem area is not my belly or hips or thighs but rather my bad habits.

I eat too much crap and I drink waaaay too much wine. I was feeling tired and unhealthy and I wanted to try to eat foods that would help me feel better about me, inside and out. Plus I'm super grossed-out by our country's meat industry. Just watch Food, Inc. http://www.foodincmovie.com/

OSB is just a new thing to try. I love all food. I love junk food. I love fast food. I love high calorie fattening food. I love healthy food too. I hate working out. I'll do it religiously for 6 weeks, then I quit completely. I know I need to exercise in order to stay healthy. That is my next big challenge--to exercise regularly. So maybe OSB will end the same as my my exercise routines and pretty soon I will resume my old disgusting ways of eating and drinking. Quick prayer: I hope not. I hope not. I hope not. I hope not!
It's not too difficult to stop eating meat or cheese and all the other obvious dairy products. But seriously, dairy is in almost everything! And sugar (The Devil) and all it's evil siblings are in just about all processed foods too.

As if it's not hard enough to only eat foods w/ zero sugar (even all the fake sugars, i.e. aspartame,) It's even more daunting to only choose truly organic foods and non-gmo and all that confusing stuff. It's even harder to cook and then watch my family enjoy steaks and juicy burgers and tacos and burritos and fajitas, meatballs, fried chicken, and cheesey creamy pastas. I could go on and on. My mouth is watering.

I've messed up a few times. Just with the sugar thing: I had wine a few times. Like last night watching The Oscars, I had like 3 glass, whoops! That's a lot of sugar. Oh well. Back on the wagon today.

I have lost a little weight, which is a huge motivator to keep it up. Please wish me luck because I need it badly.
