Quotes About Carbs

Swearing off carbs like pasta, bread, cake, cookies, and even fruit can help you slim down fast.  But not only is this diet completely unsustainable, it also sucks more than dropping a freshly buttered piece of warm bread face down on the floor.  If you've ever given up carbs, or you refuse to because they make life worth living, you'll totally relate to these Instagram pics.

Awkward Moments a Dieter Experiences on a Date

When you're a devoted healthy eater, it's hard to go out to eat at a restaurant, period.  After all, you can never be completely sure of what's going into your dish.  But when you add a date who you're hoping to make a good impression on into the mix, things can get awkward.  As if dates weren't nerve-racking enough, now you have to spend part of the evening dodging the dessert menu like the plague.  It would be ideal to meet someone in a health-conscious environment, say the gym or Whole Foods, so you at least know that you're somewhat on the same page with food.  But life isn't a rom-com, and Ashton Kutcher won't be handing you a bouquet of carrots like in No Strings Attached.  You may not care what your date orders, but ugh, please don't insist that I nosh on the bread basket.

 

1. When you go with water instead of a soft drink or alcoholic beverage.

It's not that you wouldn't love a glass of wine right now, it's just that your waistline wouldn't love a glass of wine right now.

 

2. When they order an appetiser that is so not in your diet plan.

I wonder if I can stuff these arancini balls in my purse without them noticing ... ?

 

3. When they ask if you want to share something on the menu.

Don't say fries, don't say fries ...

 

4. When you have to make multiple changes to your entrée.

No cheese, no croutons, dressing on the side ... actually, I'll just have lettuce, please.

 

5. When you can tell that they're judging your order.

No, I didn't order a salad to impress you.

 

6. When they ask you why you don't eat so many different foods.

I bet a root canal is less painful than this conversation.

 

7. When they ask if you want a bite of their food.

Image Source:  Universal Pictures

How do I say, "Do you know how many calories are in that?!" without totally offending them?

 

8. When the dreaded dessert menu comes around.

Image Source:  Comedy Central

Wow, I could really go for some ice cream — minus the dairy and sugar.

 

9. When you realise that you actually like them but are afraid that they think you're too much of a health freak.

Please love me and my pickiness!
