Do you lie about what you eat????

Posted Jan 11 2012 3:48pm
I have to admit that I have used a couple of those lies that were listed below but now thinking back I wondered why did I even lie about it.  Was it to make me feel better about myself or was it because I actually believed in them too.  Check out this interesting article that discusses the top lies that we use about food

Women Lie About What They Eat
By Cosmopolitan | Healthy Living – 1 hour 10 minutes ago

By Korin Miller

This is the biggest lie women tell.Sure, honesty is the best policy…most of the time. After all, little white lies happen, and often they're totally harmless (telling your aunt you love the crazy birthday gift she gave you, saying you had fun at the end of a lame date, etc).

But according to a new survey of 3,000 women by Timex, most of us are lying to ourselves and other people on a regular basis about something that isn't totally harmless: What we eat. And we do it often-the survey found we lie an average of nine times a day about our diet.

According to researchers, the foods most likely to prompt a lie were chocolate, cookies, cake, wine, cheese, and bread. Of course, the occasional fib doesn't hurt anyone, but regularly deceiving yourself can be bad for your health.
