I told my wife of my strange dream. Even though I'm actually underweight, I shouldn't be on a diet, but yet I want to stay on it. I originally was going to go on the diet with my wife to prove to her that she could do it and now I find myself wanting to stay on for the health benefits.
I'm 33 years old and the proud recipient of some incredible metabolism abilities. Much like my father's side of the family, I am able to eat, whatever I want and not gain a pound. In fact, several months would go by of me eating over 4,000 calories a day and only gaining 1-2 pounds over the course of that month! Everyone thinks it is a blessing but I think of it as a curse. Do you have any idea how hard it is to gain weight, in a healthy manner?
Still, I'm not trying to lose weight for weight sake, but I am just trying to be healthy. It is just difficult and I need to go through this to know and learn and better advise people, just how difficult it is to say "no" to certain things. I can eat a $1 package of 8 mini 3 Musketeers bars from Dollar Tree, without any weight gain or consequence. But, I don't want to. That is hard to do for a chocoholic such as myself.
