Summer: what a great time of the year for everyone to run around half-naked and have it be socially acceptable. With warmer weather coming, we are wearing clothes we haven't worn in about a year. Do you know how many bad food decisions I have made in the past year? Thankfully, Adam Sandler knows exactly how I feel.

Squeezing into old pants

"I swear all these pants fit last year." I have two options here: I'm either going to buy all new pairs of shorts, or I accept the fact that I put on a couple pounds and I need to do something about it.

Losing your confidence

Everyone struggles with how they feel about themselves sometimes. You look in the mirror and you're not happy with who you are becoming, so you decide you need to make a change.

Starting out strong

You prepare yourself for your diet by getting rid of all the unhealthy food in your fridge. You spend an entire day pinning workouts and diet plans on Pinterest. You spend your first couple days of your diet loving your journey to a healthier life.

You cheat on the first day

This happens to me every single time I start a diet. I eat a very good and healthy breakfast and lunch, but as soon as dinner rolls around, I want everything I shouldn't be eating. For example, the entire large pizza I ordered for myself last night.

You start to see a difference.

I believe that the biggest motivator when trying to lose weight is actually losing weight and noticing it. You can suddenly squeeze into your pants again. Your mom is dramatic and convinced you are skipping meals. But the actual best feeling is when you start to regain your confidence and you feel like you can take on the world.

All your friends keep inviting you out to eat.

This is my biggest problem. I surround myself with people who love the same things I do, which means my friends love pizza, ice cream, and Sheetz mac and cheese bites. Turning down an offer for a random ice cream run is probably harder than Zac Efron's perfectly sculpted abs.

People keep reminding you you're on a diet

I hate this. People see that you are eating terribly and they think it's their business to announce to everyone, "Aren't you on a diet?" That's honestly breaking some type of code. You are literally being put on blast and now you are silently sobbing into your bowl of now melted ice cream.

Yes, dieting can be hard, and I personally would rather work my ass off in the gym and eat whatever I want but sometimes that doesn't work, so you got to do what you got to do. Happy dieting, friends.
