Last week I reported on incorporating more fruits and veggies into my diet, and I really enjoyed the new things that I tried that week. However, I quickly learned that my body still does not like a lot of fiber and I have had trouble all this week and have had to take some fiber out of my diet. This brings me to what I want to share for my post this week.
There are many different different kinds of food and many different ways to eat healthy. There are also a lot of people out there with their own opinions about what you should and shouldn't eat to lose/maintain weight, and that's because what ght work for one person may not work for another. As I went through this week suffering because my body has a low tolerance for fiber, I decided that I would readjust my diet. I still am going to focus on eating fresh produce, because I saw some good success with it and I felt great (initially)! However, I am looking into the produce options that have less fiber content and still give me the nutrients that I need.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that trying to find a permanent, personal healthy lifestyle won't always be fast. You won't suddenly know what is right for you overnight. And there is always a possibility that it can change as your body changes. Keep an open mind and do your research; there is always an option out there that will work for your needs. Know your options and so that if things do change you can continue to make healthy choices for you. But most of all, don't give up. One important thing that I've learned is that just because one way doesn't work for you doesn't mean that you should just go back to the couch and the bag of chips. Your body never gives up on you, so don't give up on it. Treat your body like the amazing and wonderful gift it is, flaws and all.
