Confessions of a fat girl...

My food confessions:
1. I once ate an entire bag of cheeto puffs....and not one of those little bags, either.
2. I think french fires are delicious and when you put feta cheese on them, I cannot say no.
3. I ate cheesecake today- it was one of the BEST I have ever eaten (made by my friend Pam).
4. When I was in high school, I ate at Dairy Queen at LEAST once per week- onion rings, DOUBLE cheeseburger, milkshake...
5. Until AFTER college, I hated drinking water...
6. I used to eat two and three servings of food...with salt...and extra cheese...
7. I was drinking at LEAST 2 glasses of wine almost every day (this has been off and on the past few years...)
8. I over analyze my caloric intake.
9. I used to drink at LEAST 2-3 Cokes a day.
10. I once ate a medium pizza BY MYSELF...and then had ice cream...

I'm sure that most people can relate to any of these confessions and everyone has had moments in their food history that they regret. One point I am trying to make to myself is that I have really changed my eating habits into something not perfect, but perfect for me. I think it is important to look at what you eat and put things into your body that make you a better you....so here are the top ten points I am most proud to be changing:

1. I drink 2-3 liters of water every day.
2. I have discovered I can feel full AND eat smaller portions.
3. Soda can kill you....
4. My skin is looking better with all the good food.
5. I discovered I love vegetables...especially beets!
6. I get at least 45-60 minutes of cardio at least three times a week.
7. I discovered I can still eat cake and be healthy- a slice, not a "hunk".
8. I now drink maybe 1-3 sodas per month and NONE in the past 8 weeks.
9. I sleep better and have better BMs....seriously...THAT feels AMAZING to be regular!
10. My clothing fits and I feel like it looks good!

So I guess if I can change my bad habits and get healthy, anybody can!

  1. Hey beautiful girl,

    I give you the "BEST FIRST CLIENT" award. Seriously, you are a blessing to be around. I was glad when Susan said you were sweet (prior to our meeting), and although I believed her, I was extra glad when I found that she was beyond correct. :) I hope to see you again, and I look forward to reading your blog. This post was quite lovely. Again, I am encouraged. I plan on changing some things in my diet beginning tomorrow.

    Thank you,
    Nat
