Meh Meh

So this is me. Unedited and raw. Powerful. Timid. The insight to your "average" American girl. Be warned, you may love what you find. Or hate it.

I’M WAY TOO SICK

Just sitting up to type this is killing me.

Back to bed.

Ugh. I hate my life right now.

XOXO

harpgohard: emilyliveshealthy: 12wbt-and-beyond: harpgohard: Did you know that eating junk food can actually prevent binges? Yes, you read that correctly. Living a healthy lifestyle doesn’t mean that you have to only eat salads for the rest of your life (unless you really love salads, then go ahead!) You can still indulge in something sweet or salty or whatever your guilty pleasure is. Living a healthy lifestyle means eating everything in moderation. In order to maintain a healthy lifestyle, you have to not only make your body happy but also your mind happy.  Allow yourself to have a ‘treat food’ daily. - ie. 2 - 3 pieces of chocolate after dinner.- If you’re counting calories, incorporate it into your intake.-By depriving yourself, you more than likely will end up bingeing.  Realize these foods aren’t scarce.-I’m pretty sure this will not be your last time ever having cookies, so you do not need to eat all of them at once. -Savor the flavor. Take time to actually enjoy your treat. Treat your treat like treats.  Remind yourself that you can have all foods. -Nothing is off limits.  -Moderation is key to success.   Look for healthier alternatives.-If you still feel a little guilty indulging. -ie. Instead of milk chocolate, eat dark chocolate. Dark chocolate contains antioxidants and can lower blood pressure.  If you are craving something but try to resist because you think it’ll ‘mess up your diet.’ Don’t resist. You are more than likely to binge on it later, which will really mess up your diet. Work on allowing yourself to indulge in a food you love everyday. You are working on a healthy lifestyle, after all. Already doing this without any problems, haha! a great little article! :) awe, i forgot about this post lol
