today is the day~

[pixiepie]

so yeah i have been eating like a freaking heffer lately.... soda up the wazoo, mickey ds, halloween candy , just junk...i have been outta control! and i know it is directly related to my attitude. i was in a funk, steve was being an ass, i was all menstrual and just blahhhhhhh so  i decided this is the day i am starting my healthy lifestyle  makeover! whooooohooooo!

i am going to try a raw food/vegetarian diet of some sorts, including mainly raw uncooked fruits and veggies and whole grains as a way to get my body back on track because i know it is pissed at me for putting all this shiooot in her! no soda. no grease. no candy. no meat.  but i hate calling it a diet . i am not trying to lose weight just be the healthiest version of me as possible! and after a couple weeks or a month  i will probably start introducing some cooked veggies , maybe rice and the occasional chicken breast in there. i just want to get  in the habit of maninly eating raw healthy foods!

i am going to start doing my yogalates and morning dances more regularly like i used to and go for a hike in the enchanted forest atleast once a week or something of that nature.

i am going to meditate for atleats 20 minutes every morning and night to help clear my mind as well and be connected to the universe.

i am going to do atleast one good deed a day. big or small, today mine was clearing off th side walk of all the debris on our way to school so that none of the other kids would have to walk in the road since the sidewalk was blocked. pay it forward baby.

positive thoughts only! i am still trying to work cant and dont out of the vocabulary .

time to get my body, soul and spirit aligned!

wish me luck ladies !

Good luck to you, I would have a hard time giving up sushi or I'd do a veg. diet.

Nov. 8, 2007 at 10:02 AM I am going to detox right after the holidays, I know it will not be realistic before. But I have been sick twice so I know I need to flush...one thing I always do spiritually speaking..is before I leap out of bed in the morning. I ask myself, "How can I be a channel for grace today?" What are my intentions today?"

Nov. 8, 2007 at 10:04 AM I've heard that diet is very very healthy. Some model was on tv talking bout it and how it changed her life. Stock up on nuts !!! Let me know how your energy level is. I've been sort of dieting this week and am thinking of a cleansing diet real soon.

EXCELLENT!!!   You Go!

I wish I was right there with you...but sadly I'm not.  :(

I started a lifestyle change about a year ago & had been doing really good...In fact, I've lost 50 lbs without "dieting".  I feel myself slacking lately.  I don't know if it's the weather, vacation, the holidays or what, but man!  Do I sure feel it in more ways than one!!!!

The first day is always the hardest for me.  You know?  Just  "starting" is sooo hard but then it all seems to fall in to place after that.

 

I love pay it forward days!  I will do something, too!

Nov. 8, 2007 at 3:23 PM Hey! You go girl!!...YAY! However...not to be "negative Nancy"...I would say to do it the exact opposite... Start sloooowwww, cut down the meat...cut down the junk, start adding fruit and veggies, substituting the mashed potatoes, and the mac&cheese etc...with vegis...otherwise your body will go into shock and be like "Fuck you!" and crave candy and junk and grease... My usual snack was a bag of popcorn ,candy, corn nuts, dingdongs etc...so instead I got granola bars, and fig newtons and apple chips, puffed corn(baked) snacks, "earth chips" have you tryed those? OMG! amazing!  and stuff that still seemed junky and "just sweet enough" to make it think I was still junking! Instead of pudding... I got yogurt...ya know just substituted all that crap for goodness...I actually lost so much weight it was gross! And I was still eating like a pig, just good stuff!. I was 182...and went down to 159 in about 4 months! Yikes! My fiance LOVES big girls( the bigger the better actually) and so he was like "what the hell? This isnt the woman I fell in love with! AAAHHH!!!! It was kinda funny.  So anyhow... needless to say, Im pregnant now, and eating like a horse again, and the man is happy! But on the health issue...yeah...it worked for me...I say start slow, and you will see the pounds drop off! Also, I had a kidney stone last year...so I completly stopped drinking soda all together and even when I go to a restaraunt I order water with lemon...I think that had alot to do with the weight loss as well!
