Great post. Love the vintage posters, too I have to admit, I do calorie count when I feel like I want to get back on track. But I don’t consider that a “diet” in the restrictive, negative sense. I just try to eat cleaner and get more bang for my caloric buck (read: veggies).

SO TRUE.

I can eat healthy but gain weight if I OVEREAT calories.

Moderation is hard but it’s the way to live!

Very practical and down-to-earth insight into the dieting world. I can’t say much, since I went down the obsessive path of diets. But I have to agree: moderation is the key! You can eat all the healthy food you want, but overdo it and that’s not healthy! But “unhealthy” foods can be enjoyed too, in moderation. Everything ought to be balanced!

Great info – I love the 80/20% – I think it helps people realize that it is doable to lose weight and they don’t have to give up everything and be “perfect”.

This was such a great post, and I completely agree with everything you said. I’m definitely not stuck in diet world. In fact, I think I’ve been out of the diet state-of-mind since I failed miserably on Atkins and South Beach when I was 16. I learned quite quickly that my body–and my mouth, mind and mood–NEEDS carbs… and needs the foods I love.

Thanks for posting this. There’s so much focus on protein, good carbs, bad carbs, good fats, bad fats…yeesh! It’s good to be reminded that a calorie is a calorie is a calorie.

No wonder so many people are confused about how to lose weight!
