It's the new year (again), and time for resolutions. After years (many, many years) of sickness, lethargy and unfinished projects and goals, it's time I take control of my life, inasmuch as I can. Over the years, I have spent so much money on diets, medical treatments and garbage masquerading as food. I have also spent SOOO much money on self-help books and so much time researching what it takes to achieve health and happiness. Finally, I have made excuses for not actually dealing with the underlying problems that have led to an overweight, allergy-ridden, asthmatic who frequents doctors and hospitals with a raft of very real ailments.
So what is the verdict? I need to monitor my food, my activity and my money in order to try to heal my body. I believe that putting in good food will help my health, which in turn will reduce doctor's visits, improve focus, clarity and eventually finances. After 40+ years of inputting garbage, I'm diving in to healthy eating and eventually (when my knees and back can take it - per my doctor), exercise will follow. Following the advise of multiple gurus who tell us to tell yourself how good you are - change that recording in your head, thus I've chosen the name An Excellent Woman.
So here's the story:
Our Heroine: An Excellent Woman
The Villains: weak will-power, fried foods, high fructose corn syrup, caffeine, most fast foods, food allergies, asthma
The ending (spoiler alert): health, happiness, success.
This blog will follow the story: the ups, the downs, the good food, the not-so-successful recipes, and I hope you'll suggest things to try. Join me on this journey as I strive to become...
An Excellent Woman
Sounds like an excellent plan!
