Eating a little here and there adds up

Have you been to a one dollar shop to buy maybe 2 or 3 items, that will mean spending maximum of 3 dollars right? But at the end of your trip, you find out you have spent 42 dollars, then you start wondering what happened, did the cashier do something funny? You check your receipt and it dawns on you that you actually spent that amount. You went in and saw a beautiful colored glass cup which you picked for yourself, then you saw an adorable soft toy and you pick that for your charming little daughter, you see this , you see that and they all appeal to you, you buy all of them , of course the one dollar adds up to become a big amount.
That is exactly the way it is when it comes to your weight. Are you one of those that cannot pass by an ice-cream shop without answering to the ice-cream call, or do you help yourself also when you are helping your little ones with their favorite pastries. A little ice cream here and a few cookies there all add up to pile weight on you. I know a lot of us can be guilty of this, but if you really desire to lose some weight, you have to stop this. Apply discipline, go on a diet, the best way to diet is to go on a diet at short intervals, do not let it be a long stretch of time. Maybe two weeks of dieting, then another two weeks of not, then you do the cycle again. Back it up with exercises. Before you know it, you can fit into that lovely black dress again.
