Mama, I have often felt the same way. In the last 8 months, I have chosen not to partake in (not give up!) cigarettes, caffiene, coffee, salt, sugar, some artificial sweeteners, alcohol, refined carbs (bread, pasta, candy, processed foods and high fat foods. For a long time I thought to myself, "I have given up all of my vices, what is left to enjoy?" What is left to enjoy is being healthy and feeling wonderful both physically and emotionally, having a strong body with energy to spare and the relationships with those closest to you. Why is it that we have to fill our bodies with chemicals and junk and treat our bodies like they are our enemies in order to feel good?
