Remember the episode of The Office when Pam makes a board for everyone's new year's resolutions? Creed wrote that he wanted to do a cartwheel and the joke was that it was such a silly and nonsensical goal to make?
That episode got me thinking about how I USED to be able to do a cartwheel, in college back when I played sports. And with the 80-90 lbs I've gained in the years since then, I'd have to lose significant weight, just for my arms to be able to support me. I thought of how many pushups I'd have to do before they'd have the strength.
The amount of fitness I would need to achieve to be able to actually do a cartwheel is significant enough, that I've decided it's my new goal. I'm not adding more raw veggies to my diet in place of other foods because I want to lose weight. I'm doing it because it will help me do a cartwheel. And that mental shift makes the diet stress easier, somehow.
