Getting Your Diet Plan Off the Ground, a Weight Loss Story

When is a toad a toad & not a Prince? It's Diet Story Time at The Toad Gazette...

Once upon a time lived Tommy Toad who lived contentedly by the stream catching flies & sunshine on hot summer days. Across the stream lived Timmy Toad, a discontent hopper who craved something more in life than flies dressed in little dung feet.

Over the hill came Goddess Gilda, a stunning beauty from the Weight Loss Goddess Clan. Tommy Toad saw Gilda and hopped away to catch tasty flies, for he was quite happy and content - undaunted by the beautiful stranger.

But Timmy Toad was almost croakless, completely charmed by the Goddess Gilda. He was so excited that he leapt in front of Goddess Gilda's satin-clothed tootsies. Oh my, the Goddess was so beautiful at this close distance. If only he could measure up to such beauty one day.

Goddess Gilda suddenly caught sight of Tommy Toad from across the stream, hopping high to lash his tongue out at the swarm of flies soaring overhead. Gilda squealed with delight, racing forward in an urgent frenzy to get closer to Tommy Toad. Timmy Toad barely had time to cover his little toad head with his long legs before a large satin foot mashed him down into the mud. Struggling, he rose out of his mud hole and watched helplessly as Goddess Gilda reached Tommy Toad, surprising him and whisking him up to garnish his toad lips with a big wet kiss.

Then something amazing happened right there before Timmy Toad's googly eyes! Tommy Toad reverted into a handsome prince, equaling the beauty of Goddess Gilda. Oh my....but something was quite wrong, for on Tommy's face was fixed a frown, to which a fly rested in the right corner. Even so, Goddess Gilda was undaunted, and quite pleased over Tommy's transformation from Toad to Handsome Prince. Two weeks later, there was a wedding in the forest; Timmy Toad watched from a rocky hill. Tommy Prince still looked charming, but looking sad.

The Diet Moral According to Timmy Toad

Timmy Toad's downfall is that he never believed in himself. He felt overpowered by Gilda's majestic beauty, longing to look as noble, as handsome, and as stunning - when all he needed to do was to reach inside of himself to find that treasure. It's a bit like an overweight individual feels; they admire 'thin people' and yearn to lose weight so that they, too, can enjoy looking and feeling their best. But sadly, most of the time they wind up on a Diet Plateau, watching others live their dreams while theirs fades into the midst - or punched down in the mud from a size 12 worn by Skinny Sheila.

If this sounds a bit like you, and you feel like you will never reach your Weight Loss Dreams - think again!  You CAN lose the unwanted weight - no mater if you have 10 pounds to lose or 200 pounds to lose OR even more! Think about the things that you will lose if you don't lose the unwanted weight:

self esteem healthier, longer life your Weight Loss Dream itself!

The Diet Moral According to Tommy Toad

Tommy Toad represents our Non-Diet Days of Careless Feasting. Here we are, frolicking, running, and eating while we are running. During our Non-Diet Days of Careless Feasting, we continue to eat foods that aren't the healthiest, but are the fattest, sweetest and friedest (yes, that IS a diet word) that we can find. We seem to be continually searching for something more to eat during our Non-Diet Days of Careless Feasting, yet no matter how much we eat, we cannot seem to get full - completely full and satisfied.

Then suddenly, without warning, while we are frolicking and hopping, our delight is completely smothered (i.e. Goddess Gilda). It might come in the form of health problems or it might come in the form of someone hurting our feelings by making a hurtful comment about our weight, or it might come in the form of being fearful of ballooning up so large, that we might entirely lose hope of ever reaching a 'normal' weight again. Nonetheless, sooner or later, our Non-Diet Days of Careless Feasting do catch up with us, and quite unexpectedly at that. So what can we do so that we don't end up like little Tommy Toad?

Examine our current daily diet for pitfalls and exchange good for bad until the unwanted weight is gone.

Ditch yo-yo dieting for good!  Yo-yo dieting will only contribute to further weight gain, even though the dieter may go down, because it's generally temporary. Once 'the mood' to diet has been expended, the individual usually regains the weight, rapidly.

Even though we want to be in the healthiest state possible, it's not easy getting there. And there is certainly more to 'being healthy' than being at a 'healthy weight'. On that note, if we add things that we do enjoy to our Daily Diet Plan, we'll be more apt to stick to our diet plan so some very good things can happen!

Finally, we must slow down; we must take time out to plan our daily diets. Our bodies will hop higher for our healthy efforts.

The Diet Moral According to Goddess Gilda

Goddess Gilda had a Weight Loss Dream -  a Weight Loss Goal, and she allowed nothing to stand in her path in order to reach her goals (i.e. Tommy Toad/Prince Charming). In the process, she turned a toad into a charming Prince (i.e. herself into a foxy little Goddess). This certainly isn't to say that if we are overweight, we are toad-like, or that we are unattractive, or ugly by any means! It is to say that we can reach our weight loss goals when we stay focused, and re-shape both our lives and our bodies.

Many times when we diet, there are so many things that can easily distract us - from creamy yum-yums to Goddess Office Parties. In turn, it can be very easy to simply blame 'falling off of the Diet Wagon' on most any circumstance that happens along, even a cute little toad. However, for those dieters who see what they want in regards to weight loss, and who stick firmly to their Diet Plan, and who don't allow any obstacles to get in the way of their Diet Vision, to those dieters comes Weight Loss Success!

As you diet, you will indeed be faced with a Diet Demon along your journey. He may even come in the form of a cute little, innocent looking toad. Realizing what you will face along your journey helps to pave your Diet Path with Diet Success...
