So recently i have been reading a new book that a friend recommended- Skinny Bitch- which is written by two ex-models and is centered around being vegan but also gives you information about all that chemicals, by-products and components of the food we eat, how they affect our bodies, and what the government does to regulate or not regulate the food we eat. it is interesting in that it is very upfront with the intent of the book, but still allows you to learn a great deal even if you arent vegan. so the end of the book pretty much says that even if you dont learn anything else- just be aware and read the ingredients on everything you eat. i recommend this book to everyone! it will either get you thinking about what you eat, and if you are already changing what you eat, it will encourage you farther!!
so it has been since christmas eve since i lost a pound and have been really struggling with not eating out or eating what my parents make- yeah i moved back home- and have not been able to lose that weight for awhile. it has been a struggle that i know i need to get control of but hope that things will start to get back to normal in about a week- just started working for the Department of Family and Children Services, started back at school, and my best friend just had her son last week so not much time to really have that discpline! it will get better- just focus and stay strong- thats what i have to keep telling myself!!!
