    I'm guilty of all of these! I think one of my worst is:

    "Those skinny girls are just unhealthy. They must starve themselves, or do nothing but work out".

    "I'm just not meant to be skinny/pretty" um....what? First, You are beautiful. Second, you an be skinny and healthy, just get off your butt and do it!

    "It's just one cupcake. I worked out today, it's fine!" (Yes, it is just ONE cupcake...but you decided against the 'healthier' version so....no)

    "I'll start tomorrow" (yeah, you are queen of procrastination, shut up and start now!)

    As a trainer for lots of years, I used to tell myself the BS that a lot of the Fitness Industry still follows today:

    Eat multiple meals to keep metabolism burning
    Eat breakfast to "jumpstart" your metabolism

    I'm one of those troublemakers that believes, "all science is bunk." Those two lines seem to be working well for me.

    What works well for you is because of preference and not because metabolism is raised or kept burning due to eating that way. If science were bunk, we wouldn't have medical cures nor any understanding of actual weight gain/loss. Thanks for playing.

    I have to eat what I am given/what I take, even if I am full, wasting food is worse than eating too much.

    I need extra food/calorie-dense food to fuel my brain when working hard academically and under stress.

    "It's a drink, not food so the calories don't count."
    "It's easier to find somebody who likes me for me and not my body while I'm fat."
    "I eat less and exercise more than my 80lb sister (true) so my metabolism must just be broken."


    I need to invent a time machine to go back in time and slap my former self in the face.

    Not exactly about weight loss, but:
    I'm having a bad day, I deserve some crisps.
    I'm having a good day, I deserve some crisps.
    I'm bored, I'll go buy some crisps.

    If I eat a large pizza with a side late at night (usually after three meals at like 12am) and wake up late it will cancel out. I clearly thought I do workouts in my sleep :P! x
