How it began…

I often found myself wondering why every diet required cutting out everything you enjoy eating. Then, workout an insane amount trying to get this slim figure just to be hangry all of the time. I had to ask myself the question: Was being skinny worth ruining my mental health and self image? No.

I began to live by four simple rules: Learn about my body, by studying signs of vitamin deficiencies, and hit my daily calorie count instead of shying away from it. Listen to my body, I’m all for a good challenge but my body has it’s limits and it doesn’t need to push them everyday. Attend to my body, sleep is affected by so many outside factors so I tried to reduced stress so I could get more rest at night. And Eat, many people tell you to cut carbs and sugars without sharing why. Like telling you to drink diet soda despite it being worse in some ways than even non-diet soda. So, with these four rules I took my diet in my own hands and began to eat happier and healthier.
