Let this goal represent the contract within myself to make healthier, wiser decisions become habits and to feed my body with respect & love that will be sure to help grow my life's over-all wellness

When did this backslide start? what is one good thing I can do this week?

Don’t think I’ll ever be truly done with this, However I have made changes in my life and keep making changes for the good. So I will mark it as done.

and I bought blackberries again because everyone said this is the time to eat them. Thing is they’re sitting in my fridge and I’m afraid to try them. I remember how awful they were the last time.

When I was at the store I saw golden raspberries. Never heard of them. I picked them up and was looking at them in amazement like a little kid examining something new. Then a really bad thought came to mind. Their color reminded me of maggots. They quickly went back on the shelf.

I DO NOT like brown rice. I’ve tried it several times. I’ve mixed it up with other foods. I just don’t like it. So even though white rice isn’t as healthy I’m going back to it. Things is I love rice so I guess I’ll just have to watch portion sizes. I could live on rice and potatoes for the rest of my life. And, of course, something sweet for my wicked sweet tooth.

I know I am a long way from even starting this goal. I know I need to think better of myself, and treat my body and soul with love and kindness, but i need to learn how to do that first. Then and then only can I truly complete this goal.

like to give everyone on this goal this

in the last week, except for a splurge burger out with the kids – but really deserved some special time for their incredible resilience and behavior yesterday… and they were 2 hours past lunch time.

dug into the papayas. I’d never had papayas before. So now what do I think? Yum!

with respect and love.

This is going to be my mantra today.

some wonderful advice from quite a few people about the blackberries since this was my first time eating them. So now, let’s talk about blueberries. I live in Michigan and during the summer it seems like everyone is talking blueberries. The first time I had blueberries was a few years ago during the summer when it seemed like everyone and their dog was carrying boxes and boxes of blueberries. I had some them but I don’t remember them being sweet. Now I’m back to buying blueberries and I never, never, never seem to get a good bunch. Their either sour or no flavor. What should I do or when should I wait till to have some luck with this and actually get a bunch that’s sweet. Please excuse my stupidity. As long as I’ve lived here in Sticksville I should probably know this but that city girl has never left me since I moved here. Thanks again for all the advice. You guys are great!!!!!!!!!!
