Like millions
of others I’ve become a fan of Pinterest. I have enjoyed wasting time on Pinterest
especially when I have insomnia. It’s amazing what you can find there. Recently
I’ve noticed a trend on Pinterest. It appears some people are confused as to
how to lose weight and become healthy.
Many friends
have wonderful workout and diet tips pinned. It’s obvious this is something that
excites not just my friends but also the general public. The motivational
quotes to get you up and moving, reminders that you will regret not working out
but you will feel pride in your accomplishments or love yourself in the morning,
“right now is the time to move off the computer and begin exercising” are truly
inspirational. Once you decide you are going to exercise there is enough
exercises to leave even the best personal trainer awed. You are going to find
detox ideas, perfect recipes for any type of diet, even entire menus for Thanksgiving
for those who are looking to keep their family healthy. Did I mention you can
find diets you didn’t even know existed?
What I find ironic
is these very same individuals with diet and workout pins have also pinned the
best decadent desserts and meals. There are incredible variations of brownies,
cookies, cakes, puddings and pies you ever could imagine. If you prefer a cake mix
rather than beginning with just a bowl and a pantry full of ingredients you can
find out how to convert that ordinary mix into something amazing. Not to be
outdone by desserts you can find dinner, salads and bread recipes to make any
mouth water. In the food and drink section you will find all the cheesy,
buttery, deep fat fried meals your heart could ever desire. How about sweet
pork tacos and with spicy ranch dressing, chicken cheesy lasagna, white cheddar
and parmesan mac and cheese, spicy Dorito casserole, cornbread mixed with
yellow cake mix, cream crepes or strawberries filled with cream, well you get the idea.
So today I did
8 miles on my elliptical before I planned dinner. What shall I fix? Well
without any guilt it will be Cheesecake Factory Chicken Marsala, with a BLT
Pasta salad, followed by some Reese's Peanut Butter Bars. Perfect!
Wait, what
am I thinking. I will broil chicken with a toss salad and fresh fruit for
dessert.
