Every time you eat you are either fighting disease or feeding it!

At a ______ I attended regularly they all knew my story. Knew my struggles. Every time there was a volunteer luncheon the food was junk food. Like pizza or other fried foods. That was the thank you for volunteering. I would just leave without eating. Every weekly meeting (in the morning) there were muffins, cookies, crap. Several ladies told me I was obsessed with exercise. I am not. I do not like burpees. I do them because they make me stronger and I want to treat my body as a temple. There is temptation everywhere. I am not saying that a treat isn't acceptable. I am saying there should be an option B and every single function shouldn't be an excuse to break out the junkfood. Even the spaces that seem like they should be the safest sometimes aren't.

Sometimes loved ones unknowingly or perhaps subconsciously are saboteurs in our daily lives. Offering this or that "innocently", I don't blame them.

Know this, when you start a new health plan, just because you made changes in your life doesn't mean others will follow. You may be a reminder of what they aren't doing. They may want you to fail or at least trip you up.

This all seems negative. Here's the positive. You'll feel better eating healthy foods and fueling your body with the right nutrients it requires to run optimally. I just don't want you to be discouraged when peeps you thought would support you don't. You'll have a new fitness and health support system. If you think you don't really have one that's not true- you have me.
