Just because you are not aware of the sentience of another being does not mean it does not have sentience... it could mean you are just unaware of the slaughter you are mindlessly committing when you kill the life that certainly wants to live when you cut that lettuce or broccoli or kale. It dies. Just as we all do or…

I often wish that people could find peace with and acceptance of their natural bodies and inclinations... and especially not try to medicate it away. Please, for greater health and well being, just love your healthy self the way you are. Shine on, radiant ones! Shine like the sun! Brilliant like a rose! Glowing with health…

When I was young, my mom would give me a task, and after giving it a small try, I would tell her I couldn't do it. She would say, "If your life depended on it, you could do it." And she would accept no other answer. I found that I could do it, if my life depended on it. Your life depends on it. Because your life is sort of…

I wish Jillian Michaels would talk more... every time I read something she says- it makes total sense. And this is exactly true for me. After not sleeping well one night, I consider myself in the danger zone- after 3 nights I am wrecked for at least one full day, maybe two if I don't get good sleep. There isn't one truth…

I stopped eating fast food for many months and went organic/local/non gmo ... and then I was in a hurry and had to get food quick- went through the drive thru at KFC I only ate the mashed potatoes and gravy I was nauseated and had bed spins so bad I was wondering if it was something more serious... I was so dizzy and felt…

that-is-awesome! My son (5yrs old) asked me yesterday if when he grows up, could he marry me. so sweeet! But that is just because he loves his mom... at this point he can't see beyond his love and I am "as beautiful as a flower" to him. congrats mom! You are a super role model. thanks for creating a better world! :heart:…

I strongly believe in personal responsibility and that all drugs should be legal for adult people who can make life choices and day to day decisions for themselves. I also believe that addiction is in a person, not in a drug. There are drugs that are very physically addictive, deadly (and legal- like nicotine- politics,…

I'm free. I drink sometimes, but rarely.

not only thins, but teach him how to put raw veggies on the grill. my son actually ate the onions we grilled- sweet! and delicious! we also grill just about every other thing there is pineapple, eggplant, tomatoes, garlic, peppers, mushrooms, carrots, corn on the cob... so much better than the microwave (which I do not…

Here is a list of some of the floor exercises I do at home. I typically do some of these and 2 or 3 sets of each exercise. These are a mix of cardio and strength training exercises. Have fun! Push ups Squats (ball2thewall- put a med. size blow up ball between your back and the wall- slide down to squat- protects knees)…

that is so awesome. Congrats!:flowerforyou: :laugh: :flowerforyou:

In my experience, there are levels of eating healthy. Mc Donalds and other fast food is cheapest- the dollar menu... but it is sort of like poison to my body- the worst. Eating healthier is more expensive than the dollar menu, but it is more like real food. At the grocery store you can buy box food, processed food etc…

Also the kombucha tea, although it does have caffeine. I drank it while breastfeeding, but did not use cannabis in any form at that time. The Kombucha seriously helps with sleep deprivation and immunity. I slept with y son until he was about 4, but we had a lot of chaos for awhile, and he had night terrors.

Yes, the Bengal Spice Tea is caffeine free... so it might help.

I think self esteem is an ongoing thing that is made by the thoughts we think about ourselves and the things others tell us. When the self esteem is strong, if someone says I am fat, I can laugh it off. When my self esteem is low, I am vulnerable and weak, and it can hurt me. There are a lot of vulnerable people here,…

I breastfed my son for a year and 4 months... it did no help me lose weight. When I tried to diet, I lost my milk supply. I was depressed, and I believe cortisol was a major problem for me. I tried all sorts of things and was unable to lose weight. Until I got my stress and depression and chronic pain under control, it was…

back in the day... (that was the early 80's) they used to have sour cream and onion doritos... now, why they stopped making that flavor is beyond me because it was my total favorite. It still is.

My 5 yr old is very skinny and super active. When I can see bones in his chest I get very worried and force him to sit still and eat. My husband makes him chocolate milk with half and half. If you were my personal friend, I would be somewhat concerned about your health, because you seem very slim to me... what is more…

Anyone can add me- I am always up for new friends!

when I tried to lose weight by restricting my diet when I was breastfeeding, I lost my milk supply and had to scramble to do things to get it back. I think I might have done better if I tackled exercise first, and modified my food choices slowly and gently. Good luck!

wow... you look like a completely different person. Well done! :bigsmile:

When I read things like this, it makes me so much more aware of the struggles other people have to push through ... most people take -going to the gym- for granted, they only battle their own motivation levels- You, my friend, are kicking *kitten* double time, just by getting there... and you are so awesome for doing it.…

you can add me! :glasses:
