13 Thoughts Every Girl Has While Dieting

Most of us have a love/hate relationship with dieting. It starts off all well and good when we decide we’re gonna buckle down and be our best, healthiest self. But a few days in, all we can think about is how much we miss donuts. The struggle is real, and so is the hunger. These are some of our typical thoughts while on a diet.

1. This is the year I have a beach bod for spring break!

2. This isn’t so bad. I love salad!

3. What is kale?

4. I forgot how great fruit was.

5. This tastes like vomit.

6. I think my organs are starting to eat themselves.

7. I’ve been really good this week. I’m gonna treat myself.

*20 minutes later*

8. I’ll just work off the calories.

9. I. Hate. Running.

10. Wait, these pants are baggy. It’s working!

11. Damn, I look good!

12. I’m gonna treat myself again.

13. I guess I’ll never learn.

At the end of the day, trying to eat right and exercise is so awesome. But quit torturing yourself with green shakes and rations of almonds trying to lose weight. We think you look great already.

 

Hi! I'm Sarah and I'm a senior at Penn State University majoring in Print Journalism with minors in English and Sociology. The only thing I love more than writing is cheese... and hot dogs... and Netflix... and boys who are good at winking. I am a huge John Mayer fan, I refuse to wear a bra if I don't have to, and I'm essentially an insomniac who takes sporadic naps. I am addicted to filling up my cart online shopping and then realizing I am a broke college student and closing out the page. My greatest talent in life is being able to say all 50 states in alphabetical in under 20 seconds... my parents are very proud of me, as you can imagine. Feel free to contact me at sarahdesiderio@hercampus.comOr hit me up on the Twitter-sphere https://twitter.com/DizzyyyDesi (sometimes I'm funny)
