I have a secret to share with you, I've been having a love affair for many years now. Lucien has been suspecting something but I've been keeping my affair under wraps. This love affair has created quite a source of unhappiness and anxiety in my life. As a result, it has unraveled different aspects of my life in ways I could never imagine. Last year I had one aspect of my affair under control, but there are other aspects that I'm still fighting. However, I have finally decided I don't want to be in an unhealthy situation any longer so I've decided tonight that I'm getting my act together and finally letting go of bread, rice and pasta. Sugar was a big fight for me, but I finally let him go last December and now I can see sugar and I have very little emotions toward him.
These nemesis have been with me for quite a while, but now it's time to let them go even though my heart aches. I'm so used to them, but when I put on my jeans and dresses, the havoc that they are wreaking on my thighs and waistline is not worth the wonderful taste and comfort that it gives my stomach. I sometimes think about bread and how great he tastes after i spread butter over his warm, moist body...there is just nothing like it; but over time, I realized that bread has no love for me. All he wants to do is sit on my hips and thighs and create all sorts of bulges and dimples that I don't deserve to have.
Yes, i'm ending my affair because I deserve better and I just wanted to let you all know so I will have accountability. If you see me slipping up and reaching out for bread, rice or pasta, please remind me that they are my enemy. Sometimes when we are in an abusive situation it's very easy to revert back to negative sources. I'm sure I can count on all of you to have my back.
If at any time you see bread, rice or pasta around me, please call an intervention. I would suggest reaching out to my reinforcement team, veggies, fruit and whole grain. They are always there on the sidelines ready to take action when called to duty.
These past few years have been hard for me, but after looking around, i realized that when you stay in bad relationships they manifest and that manifestation can lead to things that can eventually cause death. Bread, Rice and Pasta can assist in diminishing your health and some of the consequence of staying in this affair can lead to: diabetes, hypertension, excess weight gain, cellulite, belly fat, constipation and the list goes on and on.
So my advice to you is, if you have been having a secret affair with the above, follow my lead and let go of anything unhealthy. I love my body and i want to be healthy for my family and friends and even more importantly my husband and my cute doggie Sketch.
Be healthy and take care of your body. Diabetes is one of the top killers in our society, cutting back on unrefined carbs and sugar can make a big difference in your life. Come on everyone, lets end these affairs! Make this week a lean protein, fruit, veggie and healthy whole grain week!
Peace and Blessings to you all!
