When Diet Plans Meet Daily Food Selling (My Honest Confession 🤭)

Hello everyone!

Almost every time, I tell myself the same promise that Tomorrow, I’ll start my diet again. Tomorrow, I’ll exercise. But honestly, tomorrow keeps getting delayed. 🤭 Especially now that I am selling food almost every day, it feels like my diet plans are always being tested. 😁

When you sell food, it’s impossible not to taste what you’re selling. I always tell myself, Just one bite, just to check the taste. But we all know how that goes. One bite becomes two, and sometimes it turns into a full serving. 🤭 Ice candy is one of my biggest weaknesses. I sell it, yes but I also eat it. Sometimes one is not enough, so I end up eating two, especially when I’m craving something cold and sweet. 🤭

Then there’s fishball. Oh my goodness! Fishball is very dangerous for someone who says she’s on a diet. 🤭 While frying and preparing them, the smell alone already invites me to eat. I tell myself, I need to check if it’s cooked well. And before I know it, I’ve eaten more than what I planned. 😁

How can I resist food when it’s right in front of me, freshly cooked, warm, and inviting? Sometimes I laugh at myself because the food feels like it’s calling my name. 😂 I know some people can sell food and still control themselves, but I’m being honest here that self-control is not always my strongest point. 🤭

Because of this, my diet and exercise plans are somehow set aside. I don’t wake up early to exercise. Instead, I wake up thinking about what to prepare, what to cook, and what to sell for the day. My arms get tired from mixing, frying, packing, and serving. My legs move around the kitchen and the store area all day. Maybe this is my exercise for now. 😁

The good thing is, even though I eat what I sell, I don’t feel like I’m gaining too much weight. Maybe because I’m always busy, always moving, and always doing something. Selling food is not easy. It takes time, effort, and patience. 💪🤭

I’ve learned not to be too hard on myself. There will be a right time again for proper dieting and exercising. For now, I choose to be grateful that I have food to sell, food to eat, and work that keeps me busy. Not everyone has that blessing. ❤️🙏

This journey has taught me balance not perfection. I may not be the best example of dieting, but I am doing my best in my own way. And maybe one day, I’ll finally say, Today, I really started my diet. But until then, I’ll enjoy this season of hard work, simple joys, and honest moments like this. 💪❤️🙏

Have a Blessed Thursday everyone! 😀😀😀💖💖💖

Thank You Lord for the blessings and love!

Be grateful in every little/simple things and you’ll find happiness you ever wanted! 😀😀😀

Everyday is worth to be grateful of!

Praying for the safety and wellness of all.

Heal Our Land Oh God!
