I want everyone to come up with the whiniest, most immature voice you can think of.
Got it?
Now, keeping that voice in mind, read the following statement:
"Eating healthy is so HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRD!!!"
That's what I've been wanting to shout out for a couple of hours. Art and I went grocery shopping a little while ago, and I now know just how true it is that one should NEVER go shopping on an empty stomach. Only by sheer magic did we somehow avoid buying all the junk that Haggen had to offer.
The donuts and ice cream called out to Art. The candy and pumpkin spice loaf called out to me. The chips called out to both of us.
And you know what? I think the only reason we resisted is because of money. If we weren't barely scraping by, I think we both would have caved. So much for willpower.
The thing I want to pout about the most is that it isn't even worth it, and we both know it. You think you're missing out, and you finally sink your teeth into whatever you've been craving, only to find out that it doesn't satisfy at all. Either that, or you feel like crap later on. But I don't want to face that disappointment! I just want to load up on sugar and carbs!
Blogging about it doesn't exactly help. So I'll stop. And go find some peanut butter.

Peanut butter has been a life saver for me! I don't know hot I could have gotten this far without it! lol
I hear you Jenene especially since I know what your whiny voice sounds like! Welcome to the "health club". I find it hard too. In case you find this a small comfort...Uncle Norm is going more drastic than most of us ever will as far as eating goes. He's actually doing a toxic body cleanse so he won't always be as strict and limited on food choices as he is now.
Anyway try to think of the long term benefits. He also does what it called "burst training". Art might have heard that term. Anyway love you.
