Food Diaries

One of the ways I have found success is keeping a food diary. I find that when I keep a food diary, I am less likely to splurge or binge as well as eat healthier. The big benefit is that I tend to lose weight when I'm keeping a food diary.

I tend to think that the best diet would be to find someone who is skinny (looks like you want to look) and have them write down what they eat everyday in a diary. Then follow that diary to a tea just 1 week behind. Then you really know what a skinny person eats. Chances are that diet will NEVER happen but it is something I seem to daydream about more often than I probably should. You would probably need to follow that person's work out regime as well but it is just a dream.


Just as a perk, here is my diary for the day:

2 cutie oranges
