Reluctantly Healthy

I consider myself to be "reluctantly healthy", meaning I really don't like healthy foods and exercising, but eating healthy and working out is something I need to get used to. Nowadays, it's hard to know who to believe when it comes to eating healthy. Some people say wheat is terrible for you and yet it's better than white bread. Some people say that processed vegan/gluten-free foods are bad for you, yet it beats fast food.

I just watched a video talking about why cheese is so addictive. I am a cheese lover - I don't know too many people that aren't. However, I've been taking Voyager 3 again which is an appetite suppressant and I haven't been craving cheese. As a matter of fact, this one pill a day removes any kind of cravings. Its true what they say - when you stop eating sugar and other unhealthy foods, your body just stops wanting it. The hard part is quitting cold turkey. That's why V3 is so great!

V3 has cocoa powder, kelp and coral. I feel much better when I take it. You see inches drop off first, then the actual weight. I've lost 10 pounds on V3 so far and hoping to take off another 10. I also take walks around the park which is both zen and also gets the blood flowing.

Sometimes you just have to see what really changes lives. Watching the documentary Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, I saw how miraculous a 100% fruit and vegetable diet is. Time and time again, I keep hearing how people have been cured of disease and completely stopped taking medication due to this type of diet.

The juicer that my husband purchased many months ago has finally made its why from the garage into the kitchen. We were looking through the recipe booklet that came with it last night and we are excited to try some of the juices - they sound so good! In 2012, I plan to become a juicer junkie! I can't wait to see how it makes me feel!

The top three new year's resolutions are: Make more money, get out of debt and lose weight. If you need a kick start on the weight resolution, I highly recommend V3.
