Lets face it how we see our self's is how we show our selves to others. We have all heard the saying you have to love your self before you can love someone else, of course there is some truth to that but I have to say some of us just have a need and want to have our love cup filled now and at least my generation we want instant gratification. Haven't we learned all good things to those who wait! Hell why wait when you can have cheap quick food on the go, and you can gain 50 lbs, run to the plastic surgeon and have it sucked out and keep living the cycle. We can now buy McDonalds, drive the car, txt, pick kids up from practice, grab a coffee at Starbucks, chk emails, send fb messages, post all of our thoughts from moment to moment, buy more fast food AND never leave ur car or the sitting position. The only thing shrinking in this story is our pocket books.Our waste lines and blood pressure are going thru the roof. I lived on fast food for a whole week, just feeding me no one else and I spent 145.78 over a 7 day span. Thats a lot of money on food that has done nothing to enhance my body. I then spent a week eating all natural, and at home and planning meals out and not eating on emotions and I spent 201.00 over a 7 day span. Now the normal person would say Lulu I could save 50 dollars by eating fast food, im on a budget I cant afford to eat healthy. I would agree with you. Eating healthy on a budget is hard to do, in Michigan alone 68% of the people in the state is on food stamps or some food assistance. If you have a big family it is easier to buy mac n cheese and feed them all for less. A single woman living on her own averages about 140 a month for food. Our society markets on our needs to be healthy so they write the word organic on something and charge you 4.00 for a loaf of bread. I don't make lots of money I live pay check to pay check as well. I have mouths to feed. RESEARCH I have walked into stores bought things I thought were good for me, etc I had no idea on anything. I again would watch lots of shows and hope to gain some info from them and make it work, I failed many times.
But with every fail I learned some things on how to make my diet, weight loss and fitness work for me and my life and how I can teach with it, and help others as well as keep me accountable and on track. This is like AA for chubby girls! Hello my name is Lulu and I am a closet eater, and I self destroy my self from good things and I get excited and happy over eating bad and I have low self esteem and issues with my body.. All together now HELLO Lulu and welcome.
