| the photo here shows a
huge ginger root for the juicer, 5 of 10 pounds of carrots, 1 of 2
bunches of spinach (good for juice or smoothy), cilantro, parsley, head
of romaine ( i know people frown on ice-burg, but i like it mixed in with
other greens- it's a good staple). on the spendy side is the low carb
protein powder and almond milk. i find have a protein shake is a good
way to keep me from conjuring up a good tasting- "interesting"
breakfast. it's quick and easy, and can sometimes get me out of the kitchen before i
start "creating" in there. |

the trouble with starting again is the fear of failure. the fear of going thru all the hard work, suffering, schlogging, trying and hoping- only to get tried-out after six or seven days, weeks, or months. Exhausting yourself again, then eating wrong and stopping everything, and gaining back the weight and losing all the momentum one more time. it's a trap.
so how about i don't do that again. how about i don't "try so hard", but i try just a little. if i just shop smarter, fill it with veg and expensive stuff that's good for me instead of cheap stuff that's not.
the other thing i have to remember is that "this is me". i have always been a little heavy, and will always be a little heavy. so this isn't a blog about, "look at me struggle and strive to be something i am not", it's a blog about taking responsibility for my own health. being mindful of who i am and what i can do to enjoy the best parts of life.
