It may surprise some people who read my blog and not surprise others who have known me a long time………
That I did not always have it together when it comes to food-specifically my food consumption.
- In my twenties I consistently gained and lost the same twenty pounds over and over.
- In my thirties I got it a bit more together by losing the twenty pounds for good but I started a bit of binge behavior.
I would eat really “clean” during the week. Mostly eating grilled chicken and cottage cheese and then would binge out on the weekends. My husband and I would actually plan our “cheat day” weeks in advance dreaming of the forbidden foods we were going to eat.
Unfortunately, what ended up happening is we would eat ALL day the foods we had craved and them feel sick for the next 3 days until our bodies rebounded.
It was a cycle I am happy I am not on anymore.
Since we started reading food and health blogs and learning how to trust our bodies, Bill and I are eating good, healthful foods and not fixating on any one concept like high protein, low fat, high carbs, or no carbs.
Instead we are living a life where we do not feel like we have to “binge out” since we are eating more foods in moderation and nothing is really on the forbidden list.
Things are not perfect but I am a work in progress. I am listening to my body. (I still want to read Intuitive Eating!) And feeding it nutritious foods.
Thank you for all helping me find my way and continue to live a healthful and fun life! Your blogs help me so much.
Well tomorrow Khrystle has plans to do upper body and plyometrics with me. I am scared-really scared 
Also, I have a giveaway I am going to announce on Wednesday!
It has something to do with this:
Have a good night and thanks for reading
