People are always going on diets. We dream of strutting our stuff and looking like supermodels, but the process is really freaking hard. These ten stages of dieting are just too real.

1. When you realize you’ve gained too much weight and need to lose weight

Giphy

This is the stage when you have the most motivation after looking at that shocking number on the scale.

2. You decide to go on a diet and change your life for the better

Giphy

New season, new you!! You're gonna shed some fat and get yourself ready for that summer body!

3. You scourge website to website for the solution to a “successful” diet

Giphy

What diet to do? One food diet? Paleo diet? Vegan diet? So many options.

4. You go to the market and fill your cart with a myriad of healthy foods

Giphy

Buying the food is the most exciting part. Eating it? Not so much.

5. You’re two days in and made it through with chicken, salad, and tomatoes. Everything’s great

Giphy

You're eating healthy, feeling healthy, and looking healthy.

6. You tell everyone that you’re on a diet and hangouts go bye-bye

Giphy

You dump all your research onto whoever will hear, and tell them that you can't hang because it's diet season.

7. But then, someone uploads fried chicken onto their Snapchat…

Giphy

OOOOOH girl, the temptation is kickin' in. That fried chicken looks freaking bomb, and you really want to put down your salad and order some fried chicken.

8. You put down your phone and stuff yourself with veggies instead

Giphy

It's only been a few days. It's too early to stop now...

9. The temptation is real, and everything but healthy looks SO GOOD

Giphy

Your mind is swirling with thoughts of ramen, ice cream, cake, and everything unhealthy.

10. You accept your defeat and go buy some yummy fried chicken #yolo

Giphy

In the end, fried chicken is too hard to resist, and your stomach, heart, and soul are all satisfied.

It's okay to have a bit of chubs on your body!! Food is too good, and life is too short to abstain yourself from eating good food. Feel confident in yourself because your body is fine the way it is!!

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
