Sick

Yuck, been sick since Thanksgiving. Part of me thinks it's because I ate everything & put bread back into my system. Body was pissed off! I finally broke down & took Advil Cold & Sinus meds, and am finally feeling a bit better. My nasal passages sealed up like a ziploc bag & now are somewhat open. That's about it.

I'm over myself

I think I am done talking about food & my journey on it, in it & through it. I am over it! Whatever will be, will be. Now if I turn out looking like a super model, I promise to share!!

I had a really good talk with my brother & it's nice to have support on my journey. I don't care what anyone else says, everybody needs support! My newest thing is to give out the best possible energy to all those whom I stumble across. Now with my being a homebody, I guess that might be a bit hard, but you get the general idea! I am vibing so that you have health & happiness! My perspective on life is turning around in a good way & well life is just easier. Even at my unhealthy overweight self, I am receiving great energy from all over. I know for a fact it's because I am putting it out there. I am ready to give.

I guess that's it because right now I am going to give my eyes a rest & take a nap! I love you all & hope you have had a stellar day!

Drama

Ok, I was a bit dramatic in my last post, but I do tend to wear my emotions on my sleeve. One thing I've learned is that I can't let my emotions control my life. Sigh...I really think I am going to start a new anonymous blog. I'll let ya know!

Heart Broken

Ok...I don't have a title for this post yet, but after watching this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=es6U00LMmC4 - I have decided to not anything with a face or that takes a shit. I know, very blunt straight up, but after watching this video, I feel like my heart has been ripped out of me & that my breath has completely been taken away. Seriously, I've been crying & sleeping all day, that is how powerful this man's speech is.

Also, I have to say this with utmost respect, my husband has been a First Class Asshole about the whole thing. He doesn't get it & I don't think he ever will. Asshole. Yeah I said that. I'll say it again - ASSHOLE. I started bawling & he stormed off MAD AT ME. WTF? Go Fuck yourself.

Anyway, I don't have time to waste energy on that mess. I am making a concious decision again like I said to not eat anything that has a face or takes a shit. Plain & simple! How I accomplish this is going to be simple, I am eating fruits & veggies & the haters can Shut The F*ck Up!

Ok-glad I got that out of my system. Don't worry, I am not going to get all Crazy PETA on you...well, I may pose nude once my body transforms. Hey - why not!??!?!

Love to you all & all the little animals out there.

I've been cheating on Atkins

So Turkey day came & went & of course I went off my diet. Oh CHILD! Gained a bit of weight, but eh...I will tell you what has happened to my body since I got off Atkins:

1. My allergies have hit me full force - so congested!
2. The Bloat came back full swing. WHOA!
3. Slept way too much

Ok-now with that being said, here's what I've done since. I am cheating on Atkins with The Cabbage Soup Diet. Since then this is what has happened:

1. Allergies still suck
2. Bloating has gone away
3. Losing weight

And here are my thoughts....As you all know, I've been searching for the "Answer" to my weight loss. In the beginning I knew my body was out of whack - i.e. hormones, etc. Now I am more of just following through to see how my body responds. I've really thought going vegan or raw was the answer, but I will admit it's really hard! So with that being said, I think I may have found somewhat of an answer. After countless hours on the interwebs, I have found the Paleo Diet. It's a perfect mix of no grains, dairy or sugar! YIPPEE! Because going gluten free is hard to find recipes, but Paleo peops have their food down to a science. It includes grass fed meats & tons of veggies + complex carbs. I know, I've been all over creation with this, but I am excited. Just excited because I can cook (YES-I am still digging it) & be healthy & not completely give up things. It's hard to explain, but just a feeling of ultimate health sounds like bliss to me.

Ah bliss...who doesn't want it?!?! So my friends, my journey continues, but it continues with a genuine wink & smile.

Love!

Day Sixteen - Week 3

Uhm...yeah...so still on Atkins...

I just have one announcement:

GLUTEN IS THE DEVIL

I have been stalking veganbodybuilding.com & found a profile I liked. So I have been reading her blog & seeing what she eats, etc. Steel Cut Oats are part of her routine & I remembered that Costco has frozen steel cut oats that are really good. WRONG. They still taste great, but I ate one serving as a snack with peanut butter & passed out for 3 hours & woke up like a bloated whale. WTF? How is that possible within hours?!?!? Needless to say, I am not touching bread or anything with gluten in it ever again. Geeze! Really?!?!? I even got a mile in on my treadmill this evening because I feel like crap.

I am going to cruise on Atkins for a bit & then after Turkey Day do something radical. Stay tuned, will try to post over the next couple of days, but more than likely will start blogging again after the holidays. Till then - Cheers!!!
