I Feel So Much Better

Honestly, I never felt so healthy and that much better about myself. In North Carolina I did not have anyone to get me started on eating healthier, drinking water everyday, do exercises to recondition my body. I was stuck in this bubble of eating junk food, and frozen foods, drinking sodas everyday. That it just made me feel yucky from putting that stuff in me. I never got that much calcium, iron, Vitamin C etc. I brushed my teeth but my teeth lacked the essential vitamins and minerals they needed to stay strong and not decalcify. But it happened anyway because of everything I ate and would drink daily.

When I was pregnant with my son last year months after moving out here to California. I was already drinking water, watching my diet, adding more protein and omega-3 to my diet, eating fruits and vegetables, occasionally would go eat at a restaurant. I did yoga as well to stretch my muscles out and make them smooth and more flexible. The love of my life was the driving force that helped me not drink liquid crap that could affect my immune system. My son since being home for almost a year now his immune system is very strong thanks to my lifestyle changes. He has been near quite a few sick people, and never caught anything from them. Me and the love of my life never vaccinate ourselves, and we never vaccinated our son when he was born even after he left the hospital. We do not agree with vaccinations. They do not have any all natural substances in them. Which is why we will  not vaccinate. There is stuff in food that isn't good either, and wish that the United States government can ban these unnatural chemicals and additives from the foods we eat. I would rather live in Europe because there is a lot of unnatural chemicals they do not add into food whatsoever.

I feel a lot better drinking water because it filters out all of the chemicals we take into our body everyday. I use to have mild acne. Almost everyday I would have pimples in some parts of my face, and had tons of blackheads. There were a few medicinal creams prescribed to me that I used, but it made my acne a lot worse to where my pimples turned into painful cysts that I could not even pop it hurt like Hell. I discontinued use of those creams because my face took so much damage from that cream. They wanted me to take Acutane but the dermatologist said there were a lot of bad side effects that happened when taking Acutane. Most commercials say that what is in the air clogs our pores. But that is mostly untrue, because what you eat and drink affects your skin. Where I grew up living with my parents the food I ate was not considered healthy, because they were too comfortable eating unhealthy food. My skin was bad the entire time. My blackheads would never go away due to me eating unhealthy food, and never taking in water. Since being here in California in the county of San Diego you need to guzzle down water where you do not dehydrate. I kept drinking water more and more noticing how my face no longer had acne whatsoever. My husband even noticed too that my face is getting clearer. I even looked in the mirror and noticed that my face was getting clearer. He said to keep drinking water that way the rest of the chemicals in my body get flushed out.

As I am writing this blog post right at this very moment. My face is completely clear. I still drink water everyday, but I do get 100% apple juice since it contains a lot of Vitamin C in it. I very very rarely eat anything with sugar in it. Once a month or if someone offers a cupcake or cheesecake I will accept it. Rarely happens but when the offer is given I accept, but I never eat more than I need to. I just eat the one piece. As for my diet it is so much better and a lot healthier. Me and my husband are slowly transitioning into more vegan foods. Our son we just started giving him baby food, and he is getting use to it. For his birthday coming up in two months we plan on doing everything vegan, and those who are at his 1 year birthday party they can bring their own food that they want to eat. Unless they want to eat the vegan food. We plan to have our son eat vegan to where he has an even stronger immune system, has healthy teeth, strong bones and muscles.

Another thing I no longer do that I use to do every day of my life when I was in high school and many months after that. Was use make-up. Anytime I had to go somewhere such as the doctors, dentists office, family gathering. I never went unless make-up was on my face. It was a way to cover up my acne, because it felt like people would stare at my face and not my eyes. Whenever I spoke to them. It made me feel self-conscious when my parents out loud would say "Gosh, look at your face." They completely embarrassed me in public doing this. I rarely went into public after that mostly because my parents they like humiliating people in public. Doesn't matter where, they always did that. Now I enjoy going into public letting people see my face because it looks amazing. Compared to before that is for sure.

Right here in the present I am glad I took the necessary steps to turn my life around. Because if I was still where I lived before then there was not going to be any progress made. The love of my life would be on the other side of the country, and not by my side taking these healthy steps with me. I am very happy with the result of bringing more healthier choices in my life. Now with my son he can be healthier too.

Kind of looking forward to what being vegan is like. :)
