I think most people have tried a diet at least once in their lifetime, and it's not the peachiest of endeavors. Cravings, hunger and the resulting hanger that occurs isn't a fun time. However, in most cases, if you can tough through it, it's worth it in the end. If you have ever been on one of these "journeys", you will relate to these 8 things that happen when you're on a diet.

1. You get excited planning out your meals, and get caught up in the wonder of what the results might be!

2. You have your first "meal" and are still hungry.

Guess that wasn't as filling as you thought it would be. Damnit.

3. The onset of hanger begins. You warn those close to you.

It's not me being a b*tch, it's my stomach. She's the hungry b*tch, not me.

4. You dream of pasta, and chocolate, and memories from the past.

(aka: 2 days ago before this hell hole started)

5. You find yourself staring at others' plates at dinner, longingly.

Of course this restaurant serves hush puppies on the side. No, no, I'm content with my salad. Really.

6. You finally think you've curbed your appetite, but while you're watching TV, ten food commercials decide to appear, creating a food extravaganza on the screen.

Are you &*@$!#% kidding me?!?

7. You begin to see results and think, okay, okay, this was totally worth it.

Although bread though. Damn, I miss bread.

8. Post-diet, you appreciate your favorite snacks more than you can ever imagine.

You shed a single dramatic tear as you incorporate them back into your diet… in moderation of course!
