I wish I could say that when I lose weight I do it the healthy way.
Eating right and working out.
If calories out > calories in you lose weight.
We get it.
I’ve lost a couple pounds recently.
Other people wouldn’t notice but I do.
It makes me a little happy to see the number on the scale decrease.
But I know in my heart I’m not doing it the right way.
(No, this isn’t some eating disorder confession, promise)

I haven’t worked out since 2012. True story.
So last month Naveed and I paid $84 to not go to they gym one time.
Hey, if neither of us goes there’s no judgement, right?
I work 11-6, straight through. I’m a lucky duck, eh?
The hours are great but somehow I’ve never gotten into
food groove since I left the corporate world.
So here’s how to lose weight the stupid way:
Drink coffee all morning.
Two to three cups minimum.
Hang out with your dog, watch Kelly and Michael, and of course, read blogs.
Then at 10:30, run around like a crazy person to get to work on time.
In a desperate moment before you leave, grab these items (or items like these) from your pantry:
- entire box of cereal
- applesauce cup
- 3 caramels
- 1 baby can of Coca-cola
- 1 bottle of water
And I swear, after a certain point of hunger you just stop being hungry.
The bottom line: I forget to plan to eat.
And as a result I just haven’t been eating enough.
So hey, I’m down a few pounds.
But I’m not necessarily happy about it. And I’m not proud of it.
There you have it. How to lose weight the stupid way.
I don’t recommend it.
And here’s where you can help. Do you have any quick grab and go meal suggestions?
Is there some item I should just keep in my fridge at all times?
Help a girl out!
