Hypocrisy -- Lessons Learned -- Practicing What I Preach
First and foremost, I apologize for not posting on this blog as much
as I should, considering most of you who visit here are beginners, and
looking for as much information as possible from someone who is going
through the myriad of information looking for help with SHTG.
We've been eating a lot of the same recipes over, I'm also having issues with
that Primal cookbook … I have yet to find a recipe out of that book that is
palatable. The lemon blueberry muffins are too wet, the deconstructed cabbage
rolls were bland as sin, the olive salad for the muffuletta was overpowering,
and there are constantly ingredients you have to live in a large metro area to get.
For those who live in towns 5500 or so, who don't have time to go across the river
to a 100,000 population town to go hunting every butcher and grocery store to find
exotic items … this book leaves much to be desired.
On the other set of claws, since graduating with my second MA, I've been in a trough
as my husband calls it … stressed, throwing pity parties … I didn't realize how much
my health and well-being affected his health and well-being until we just got the bloodwork
back from his doctor yesterday … talk about a kick in the teeth. You remember what I said
about showing up, doing it anyway, even when you're not in the mood … well, we shot back
up from around 400 to almost 1800. Doc says if we stay under 1000 he's ok … so, we lost
50% ground from me slacking and not taking care of the kitchen as I had been prior to
this February … five months of letting life get in the way of taking care of my husband, and
I've damned near failed him. I'm sorry.
So, I've learned we can't do this on Niacin, fish oil, and half assing it … it has to be a daily
discipline. We can't go out to eat just because it's easier, we can't cut back on the diet just
because unhealthy foods are cheaper … we just can't.
So … back to business …
