Getting back in touch with my body
 

I don't feel well today. Ate kinda crappy all weekend at multiple bbqs and get togethers. And boy if I can't have a drink I sure am going to have a cheeseburger or something :) Now I'm feeling all out of sorts since I eat a pretty healthy diet normally. It sucks.

But what I remember is, I used to feel this way A LOT. Alcohol, as you all I'm sure know quite well, isn't the best thing for a happy stomach. And I spent a lot of time feeling like, well, crap from drinking too much, eating poorly, not eating, all of it. Like a lot of time feeling like this. Or worse.

So even though today I feel lousy and I can't wait to get home and have a Tums, I will take comfort in the fact that this isn't happening all the time. That one of the reasons I feel soooo bad off some food that really wasn't all THAT awful, is because my body is getting much healthier than it used to be. So a little bit of bad food goes a long way and although that sucks, it's a good sign for me. And I know I don't like feeling this way, but if I drank this weekend, it would be this times 1000.

So cheers to feeling bad as a sign of how good I'm feeling!... if that makes sense :)

It makes sense to me. Cheers to bad food making us realize how healthy we have become =)

Makes perfect sense KT. Feeling a bit the same myself. I smoked some ribs, pork butts and chicken over the weekend and ate more than my fair share; and then some. Paying for it now.

Great job on not drinking!

Makes total sense. Right there with you.

Very sound, your body will tell you what it needs for nutrients.
