Last night I binged on yummy candy and chips my mom brought here from back home. I loved eating them. I didn’t love the huge headache and bitchy nautious feeling I had afterwards.

It was still worth it though.

Do what you want and remember, people that say that you should be happy with your body and blah blah blah always have a little more meat on them than they should, and they are just trying to feel good about themselves by saying size doesn’t matter! :O

Keep up with the healthy lifestyle and don’t feel bad about having treats here and there. You’re allowed. Life should be fun!

Just keep on keepin’ on, Heather… glad that the “eating lifestyle change” is making you feel better… let’s just hope it doesn’t affect your boobs in any negative way…wouldn’t that be a bitch??

lol, Heather, good for you. (Wish I did.) :0)

I thought about responding too, because that comment would have gotten under my skin a bit, too. It sounds like you’re pursuing a healthier eating and life style, and that’s GREAT. I’ve never heard you voice any disgust with your body.

But, you know, who knows what’s going on with that commenter. She left an address of some other blog that I bet she comments on, I know, but I haven’t checked it out, because I’d rather read my friends’ blogs.

Thanks, Ron. And to prove further that I don’t have disgust for my body, I just want to say that I have really, really good boobs.

I am glad you responded in that way. I wanted to respond to that comment as well, but it ain’t my blog and it ain’t my battle and I know the writer most likely meant well and and and.

But, having my own issues with food, particularly carbohydrates with high glycemic index values – well, even though well-intentioned, it pissed me off. There you have it.

As Auntie Grace Slick sang “you’re only as pretty as feel, only as pretty as you feel inside”, or something like that.

That is different than feeling good physically.
