Venting the stress, with a workout to follow.
SO I have been inspired to write this before I head off to workout, make a nice supper and then read the blogs I have sorely missed lately. I will do this over the course of the next 24 hours.
IGNORE THIS BLOG IF YOU DO NOT KNOW ME….. I am not a nut, but sometimes I feel like one! 
I have to say I feel compelled to just kick it up a notch! I let go of the dieting for a bit because people left and right are telling me how far I have come and how much better I look. (lol… Thank you) Well, I slip and make bad choice after bad choice like it is an okay thing to do. We need to TAKE CARE OF OUR PRECIOUS BODIES! We are temples that we can choose to fill with toxic waste or healthy, life giving food and vital nutrients. The choice is always ours to make. And when I hear of illness and we are sick society, I just want to just fill up our plates with the cleanest (chemical free) and freshest foods out there. They are there waiting to be purchased. The foods that are over process and tainted with preservatives ARE DEAD. I am enraged and I vent !
Oh boo hoo, sadness and stress have been present it seems a bit more this week for myself. So what! This does not give me the right to eat. I wish in our society the day would come where toxic crap foods would be as outlawed as illegal drugs are and smoking will one day be. I am angry. And I need to workout. LOL. Please buddies I am fine. But it is a passion because no matter where we look, we get more and more unhealthy. What a strange world we live in where there are hundreds of diets and people striving to be healthier and yet we are increasingly becoming more and more sick ! ? ! What is up with this?
Off to workout.
I am somewhat in a similar mood to yours. I have been blue and eating. You are right though, just because we might be down doesn’t mean that we have to eat junk. If only I can keep that thought in my head and listen to it! I hope you feel a little less stressed after your workout.
Why don’t you tell us how you really feel? LMAOOOOOO
Jussssssssst kidding my friend.
I wish I could get more people to do the whole foods thing as much as possible. I cannot begin to express how much more energy I have because of it. Heck, I wish I could get my own family to do this. Was talking to my husband at lunch today and he was (again) complaining about feelings of nausea and tiredness and blah blah blah, and I finally just told him unless he is willing to finally “listen” to me about what he eats and when he eats, then I just didn’t want to hear him complain anymore. LOL I think he’s about ready to give my healthy eating plan a whirl… He gets a doctor’s checkup Monday and when he sees how much weight he’s gained and how high his cholesterol is, that should do the trick to get him motivated enough to do something about how he feels.
Okay, got off on a tangent here. Enjoy your workout Jennifer!!!
HUGGGGGGGGGGS,
Shan
So what if you are a nut? Show me a “normal” person. LOL
Jennifer, it’s not either giving up and making bad choices or being strickly clean and whole foods. The trick is to find a healthy balance and still respect every single choice you make rather than calling it bad and beating yourself up. I am learning it too.
Workouts are great for boosting up self-esteem, aren’t they?
Hugs,
Tatiana
Jenn and Shanna you are too adorable..LOL!! Love when you are passionate about a subject. I learn so much from reading your blogs!!
Jennifer, you are soooooooooooo right. Our lives are constantly being interfered with…FOOD FOOD FOOD. Everywhere I turn there is a fast food restaurant staring me in the face. I’m not very strong, I haven’t gotten to that completely healthy place yet. I’m still weaning myself off of the fattening, fast foods..LOL!!! How sad, its like an alcoholic, only a foodaholic..but seriously I agree with you. Slowly I am replacing healthy foods with unhealthy ones. Its a challenge in my household but I WILL WIN THE BATTLE!!! You are an inspiration to me…thank you for always being there Jennifer!! Super big hugs coming at ya!!
Woops, and by the way…You are NOT a nut!! We love ya to pieces!!! Have a great workout…have a great evening too!!
You guys are all awesome and I am so thankful for you all. Must run and make supper after a bloody great workout, but I will be back. Ahh I think Buddyslim is a much better addiction then milk chocolate. Love you all.
