After my first day with a 'blog' of my own, I've had 4 comments! Way cool!
Not much to say today....I had a pretty good "eating" day. I had a good breakfast, drank lots of water, did some moderate exercise (bowling) and passed on lunch out with the girls. I came home, had a bologna sandwich and cleaned out the refrigerator, then, I took a nap.
For dinner, I resisted the urge to eat out and picked up something simple at the grocery store. I am no longer eating before bedtime and will add lots of water to my repertoire.
Now, to be vulnerable here, I must admit that making permanent changes will be like breaking up with a lover who is no good for me.....I love white food. White flour, white sugar, white fat....it doesn't love me. It is addicting and mood altering, turns to fat in my body and doesn't give me what I need which is lasting energy. It doesn't care about me: it never heals my sicknesses, sharpens my mind or stabilizes my moods.
Now, I have to sit and ponder what my life will be like without it-because I know I MUST say goodbye........................I will let you know how the 'breakup' goes.
It's hard to give up "white" food! But after awhile you realize that you feel so much better and don't want to go near the "white" stuff again! (OK, except maybe for the occasional donut!) "Brown" foods (rice, flour, etc.) have a much heartier flavor and you feel much more satisfied after eating them.
