From my title, I guess I will be talking about things that I've realized today. Things that I've kind of noticed before, but now they're really clear to me. No you know what? As a matter of fact, these "things" aren't even things anymore... They've become ISSUES. Yes I said it. Issues. Issues that are not good. Not even one ounce of good. But really, when has an issue ever been a good thing anyways? Never. I'm pretty sure of that.
SO. Two issues. Pretty cut and dry. Ain't hiding anything now. Shall I reveal these two wretched issues that I have? Yes I think I will. Right. Now.
1) I PMS a lot earlier then I should, and I absolutely HATE it. (Considering the fact that HATE is an extremely strong word, then you know that it's something that I need to change. Let's also consider the fact that I cap locked that b*tch, so yes I hate this issue)
I PMS like two weeks before I even get my period. Is that normal? No, I think not. I think it's all in my head, and that little thought in my head makes my body think that all this yucky junk food is good for me. NO. Cravings are bad. My appetite is HORRIBLE. I eat so much more often then I should because my brain makes me think that I'm hungry like an hour and a half after I eat. Another thing, my portions become huge. I eat way more food at a meal/snack. It's so annoying! I want to portion control what I eat! I also become extremely lazy when I PMS, so exercising to me seems like it's out of the question. And it shouldn't be!!! Next time I feel like I need a craving I'm not falling for it, I'm going to force myself to workout! I don't care if I have to manipulate myself into thinking that I need to workout or that these foods that I'm craving are poison... I will do it!!! I can't fall back into that place again, or else I will be infinitely unhappy!
2) When I PMS, alllll I want to do is eat junk food... Like chips, candy, sweets, chocolate... NAUGHTY FOOD.
And I usually fall into the trap, and I eat huge amounts. It's like I don't get full! Or when I do get full, I keep eating till I feel like sh*t because it tastes "good". Yeah, NO. I always feel sick and bloated. I end up feeling like absolute crap about myself. I can't do it anymore, it's not good for me. Even if I want ice cream, I can't do it. I can always make healthier alternatives. For example, a fruit smoothie... Or if I really want ice cream I'll drive my butt over to Whole Foods and I'll eat gelato. If I want chips, I can eat less junkier versions of chips... Like veggie chips, or something baked or organic. BETTER YET... Almonds! Pistachios, stuff like that... Nuts and seeds. If I want chocolate, I can get low calorie dark chocolate. Or a protein bar!!! There are so much healthier alternatives, I don't know why I force myself to fall for the crapppy ones. WHYYY?! Well it doesn't matter why, cuz no more!
The only good thing of falling off of the health train is catching yourself and learning that yes I'm human... Yes I will make mistakes. But what counts is that I can learn how to fix these mistakes (yes I'm kind of stealing this quote from Jenna's mamma from Thirteen Going On Thirty, LOL... Love that movie!)
Alrighty kiddos.... I'm done son. My arm hurts from typing... Idk why. Gonna watch some more videos now then shower, brush my teeth, floss... Etc. Hope you guys have a wonderful day/night.
Adios amigos!!!
