Dieting can be hard...like... for real?!

I had no idea! It’s not like I’ve been struggling with these extra rolls all my life. I’m 1 roll short of opening Maya’s Bakery.

And while it’s a bakery filled with sweet rolls, pastries, breads, and doughnuts, the deliciousness makes the pounds pile on like a stack of pancakes! Mmm... pancakes... with syrup... maybe some strawberries... definitely whipped cream... lots and lots of whipped cream. NO MAYA! Stop it! That’s what founded your body bakery in the first place! OY I say! OY!

But now, let’s call it like it is:

Dieting IS hard! Not “CAN be”... It IS IS IS!

There is no getting around it because you need to change your eating habits, moderate your food intake, eat less of all the bakery things you love, among other tasty things like fried foods. And now I want fried foods. It’s a never-ending cycle. But you’re not alone. And this is where the eye roll comes in... *cue eye roll* Because let’s face it... by now we all know we’re not alone. We know there are so many women, girls, and people in general that struggle with a healthy lifestyle on a regular basis. For some it may be easier than for others but we have all had a taste, a dollop, a portion of what it’s like to struggle with better food decisions. It’s hard for everyone because even if you’re working to MAINTAIN your weight, that’s still effort. Let alone if you’re trying to lose or gain weight. The key is to find the better ways to make it work. Cahoot with a nutritionist, friends, family. Get that support system in place that will help you and share your healthy lifestyle with others. I’ll help you get started... Now I wanna hear everyone, all together, in your loudest, booming, can-do voice...

“WE CAN DO THIS!” And... “WE DON’T NEED JUNK” And... “WE WILL MAIL ALL OUR JUNK TO MAYA INSTEAD”

Excellent! I heard you loud and clear and I believe in you! Thank you in advance for your junky donations, I will be expecting them shortly. Sincerely, Maya’s Bakery
