I've always known it was easy, if I just did it. What makes us choose not to do what we know is the right thing? Maybe we feel we deserve the junk... does it really make us feel better? Not really...
I don't think these last few years have been about eating junk to feel better... well, not always, but more about just choosing not to choose. Sometimes it's just easier to not have to think... I've been so busy, distracted & sometimes slightly depressed, I guess. It's been more about getting by & sometimes about that little thing I call "instant gratification"... wanting what I want because I just do.
I'm back to trying to minimize, if not avoid sugar... I really overdid it around Halloween & really felt it... anxious, bitchy, stressed. I know what sugar does to me & I know that I'm better off w/out it.
I gotta admit, though, in avoiding sugar on & off these past few years, "watching my intake" was more about the sugar & less about keeping nutritionally balanced. I didn't avoid fatty foods & such that I normally would if I were OP.... & I stopped keeping a tight reign on proportions.
Anyway... it's been a good week. 2 more days till WI.
Till next time...
