One of the secondary rewarding things about this WOL is watching people who are watching you eat. You know... they see this person chowing down on salad with FULL FAT DRESSING, and eating STEAK and LOBSTER with REAL BUTTER, and then ordering MORE MEAT or having CHEESE.... and you just know that inside, they're saying "oh dear, that poor woman (or man).. don't they know all that is bad for them?"
When the whole time YOU know that it's the bread, and the rice, and the potatoes, and the pie/cake/cookies/donuts/lemon bars/spaghetti/(place another high-carb no-no here) that is really the problem for folks like us.
Not long after I took up this WOL again this time (the last time!), I went out to lunch with friends. I studied the menu for a bit, and decided on the "Diet plate." Now, said "diet plate" contained an 8oz butt steak, a portion of cottage cheese, some Cheddar cheese slices, and a whole pile of fresh fruits--oh, and one or two boiled eggs, too.
When the food came, I offloaded ALL the fruits onto my bread plate and two other unused ones at our table, and said, "This is all up for grabs--but nobody touches my STEAK!"
One of my friends looked at me and said, "Now that sounds like a diet I might be able to live with."
I *can,* and I *do*.
Don'tcha love it???
