Sweet Candy: Eating Right!


It's common during Thanksgiving & Christmas to eat foods that you wouldn't normally eat, which in moderation is ok, depending on what it is. But what some people don't realize is how much food affects us mentally, emotionally & physically. These past few months, I've had some really upsetting things happen in my life which caused large amounts of stress, and I started eating comfort foods. I didn't gain much weight because I'm constantly on the go, but I noticed a drastic difference with my emotional & mental health. I was very irritable, depressed, & crying—almost constantly. My teeth were very sensitive and I was getting cavities and my energy was, well, there was none. I had no energy. I was exhausted. And as if that weren’t enough, my skin started changing & looking old. I finally had enough! I was tired of crying all the time & barely having strength to do normal house duties. I wasn’t enjoying life at all. I decided to return to a diet that really helped me 2 years ago. Back then I was trying to lose weight. I lost 15 pounds on this diet. It's not a crazy diet where you have to eat only lettuce & water for excessive amounts of time; it's a 40 day health experience. It boosts your immune system, balances hormones, and increases energy amongst other things. I have been on the diet less than 1 week and I have been sleeping through the night again, I have a lot of energy, no brain fog like before & I feel so much better. I haven't cried once!! I feel amazing! I really encourage you ladies to treat your bodies well. We will all be happier, healthy moms if we really try to eat right. I wish everyone tried this diet, because it's the only one that has worked for me & really helped my mind. I know many people that have benefited from this. Take care & cheers to good health!
