Weight Loss Question

By on July 31, 2009

To eat or not to eat? This is a question to ask yourself, or you can simply look in the mirror.

Will the food you are about to eat bring you closer to health or farther faster? Will you wake up looking and feeling your absolute best or wanting to hide?

Eaters’ remorse is a Catch 22! You may eat for comfort or to satisfy your taste buds now only to be upset at yourself later – and so the vicious cycle goes. When we binge or indulge out of control, we can in fact eat or drink ourselves into oblivion the next day. It’s scary what the wrong foods can do!

When I eat the wrong foods, my plumbing slows down, which leaves me looking far from my best. My face and eyes get puffy, I get dark circles under my eyes, a film over my eyes, bad breath, I get bloated, constipated, feel fat, AND lack energy. Often these symptoms are accompanied by: moodiness, brain fog, inability to concentrate, flatulence, headaches, aches and pains, breakouts, allergies, and a feeling of being disconnected from my higher power.

Exercise, cleansing, and healthy eating (most days of the week) keep me jowl-less, my eyelids visible, and keep my belly smaller than the bottom. These three parts of my body always let me know when I’ve gotten carried away – I’m forever grateful for my built-in gauges – can’t say enough!

A mirror doesn’t lie –  what are YOUR built-in gauges telling you?
