My Oreo hangover!



Ohh the misery!!!
These little guys are devils for SOOOOO reasons. But first let me relay a conversation we had:

Me: Are those MINT OREOS!?!?!?! 
 
Ladies at the table: yeah 

Me: Ohh man those things are my weakness 

Oreos: It’s girls night out and you just suffered leg day. But you can only have a few of us.

Me: DEAL! 

I had 6 of those bad boys. That doesn’t seem like a lot. For me in the past I could easily scarf down a whole row by myself in 1 episode of the Simpsons. Being the healthier person I am today this was a huge improvement but a binge still for me at this point.The conversation I had with my body the next day:

Body: WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?!?!?!?! 

Me: Ohh crap the mint Oreos…ohh man. 

Body: Your choices are making me suffer so I am going to make you suffer.

Me: I’m SORRRRRRYYY!


My body has started to become accustomed to less sugar and fake stuff. Now by no means am I perfect and eat nothing but organic from the earth foods. I have my days/moments. What I can tell you is that my body knows the difference between real food and the fake stuff. As we grow up and make our choices based on convenience, laziness, ignorance, or whatever is it that helps you make your decisions our bodies become acclimated to what we feed it. Your body can get use to a row of Oreos in a quick minute- that does NOT mean it’s good for you. 


Look at those ingredients… they are not as bad as some things in this world but I can guarantee you that you will not be running or performing your best after eating them-that’s all fake un-sustainable energy right there folks.

If you don’t get anything out of this I want you to at least consider listening to your body. Cut back on something less than stellar for a little while and if you re-introduce it to your body and your fine than sweet. But if you have the conversation with your body like I did- take the hint.
