My blog is starting off - as a 40 days no junk food cleanse.
Today is the day before the first day, I just decided I was going to make one more big change for myself. Living healthier not only intellectually, mentally, but now physically.
I am clearly not happy with the weight gain - and not because of looks, but because of the junk food I ate all winter. Time to cleanse my body.
Tomorrow is day one, going to try mostly raw foods- and look back into becoming a vegan, or possibly going organic. I think if I limit myself to one non-vegan day per week, then it will give my diet enough variety to stay healthy. This one day can only consist of organic/free range animal consumption. Tomorrow is test out being a vegan time though. Let's see what happens. Anyone care to join me on this journey of food, and life ?
Discipline to not eat junk food - is going to be harder. No more convenience eating. I will have to be more aware of each piece of food I am eating, therefore being more aware of my food-and where it is coming from. I also will try to do more situps/pushups/skipping like I used to! TIME TO GET HEALTHY INSIDE AND OUT.
Changes are helping me realize how well I am actually doing. Learning and growing everyday, realizing more of what I was hiding from myself, and not seeing clearly in life. I was already aware - not merely applying my knowledge, and surprisingly it is working. Now it's time to apply this to my eating, and ultimately consumption. It's more for my life to be a more conscious effort.
Change starts by looking in the mirror. Really seeing yourself. Your actions- and the reactions they cause. I am applying that slowly to each aspect of life. Eventually I will be exactly where I want to be.
The best me, it will come.
In it for the long haul.

im so down...but i dont think i am into raw only or going vegan....so instead i will reduce eating out ie china food and burgers and increase the amount of cooking i do at home for me and ludy...today i made cream of assorted greens soup....and i know that the cream is not good but i like it...it has to go....
ReplyDeletei was checking out the special K challenge this morning and thinking about doing something similar. however i was more concerned about doing more exercise and incorporating it back into my regular routine...which i dont have, and i think is one of the factors contributing to my 'situation'
so...
im down

ReplyDeletewell, continue by telling me what you eat !
we should try to eat the same kinds of things.
