Well, today was a healthy living fail. I completely took everything I was working so hard on and threw it out the window. That's not at all what I was intending to do! I had this brilliant idea of getting into the swing of things in this new year, but I botched it.
Okay, so, it's not that big of a failure. I ate out not once, but twice today. I had soda not once, but twice. I've kind of been running myself ragged with fixing my dreads, taking out the woolies and dreading the natural hair as well as all that business stuff. I didn't really have time to eat. I just grabbed something on the go.
Here's what I realized. Whatever happened to a small being...well...small? A small is now what used to be a medium when I was a kid! Are they trying to kill us here? Seriously, when I say small, I mean small!
I've also come to the conclusion that fast food doesn't fill me up the way real food does. I mean, I get full pretty fast, but it seems I just don't stay full. It's not long before I'm scrounging around for some kind of snack or whatever. That's definitely not good for me. I know my body well enough to know it's craving real nutrition, not just something to snack on because my stomach's empty.
Lesson learned, I won't be doing much of that anymore...
well, some people think that 3 meals a day with long stretches in between are the way to go. others think that "grazing", or eating 6+ smaller meals a day is best. what do you think?
ReplyDeleteHmm...that's a good point! Honestly, I think grazing when it comes to "junk food" really isn't healthy, but I think I'll cover the non-junk-food topic in a post of it's own. Thanks for the inspiration. It's something I've really kind of been debating myself!
