"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

My biggest problem when I'm on a diet is that I always want something sweet after a meal. I try not to but what eventually happens is that when I have gone for awhile without something sweet I cant help it I always go overboard then have a bunch of sweet stuff.

So what I was woundering do you guys know anything that is sweet and that would be a good snack that doesn't ruin the diet?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

substitute, don't eliminate. You'll binge if you eliminate. I buy things like dried mangoes to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Sugar free gum. It gives you the taste, the action of chewing and very few, if any calories.

PLUS! It encourages the flow of saliva which washes food particals off your teeth, preventing tooth decay.

There is just no down side!

I killed my sweet tooth by cutting out junk completely.

Im not religious at all, but a couple of years ago for lent, I gave up all chocolate/sweets/junk for an entire 40 days, stuck to it, and at the end, I found the craving was gone.
I used to eat sweet/junk foods almost everyday, since lent a few years ago Its more like twice a week at most, or on holidays. I just don't have the same desire for sweet things I used to, I eat loads of bananas!

Guess what, Lent started yesterday, so theres my challenge to you-
chocolate- eat a bannana
coke/fanta etc - drink skimmed milk or fruit squash
other sweet things- snack on dried fruit, nuts, bread etc.

stick to it for 40 days, at the end of that, binge as much as you like, but I suspect you wont want to.

Cure.
