• Why Am I Always Hungry?

Just can't seem to get full? Do you find yourself eating endless amounts of food but still crave more? Maybe because you haven't got a clue what it is you have been REALLY eating? What?! That's right, what have you been shoving into your mouth? I was in the same boat as you three years go, cruising down the river to nowhere with a burger in hand! No wait I think I had a cheesy taco in my hand! The FIRST thing I noticed when I transitioned my unhealthy diet to a healthy one was I mysteriously was satisfied and full. Crazy I know! How was an apple going to fill me up?! I would not have believed it either but then again I'm REAL living proof! LOL! Well the reason nutritious food fills you up is because its OMG NUTRITIOUS! I might not be a scientist, a dietician or even a nutritionist BUT what I am is a big girl gone thin and this is MY story. So listen closely . . . go buy Michael Pollans book Food Rules and let him explain what you should be eating and just MAYBE why your appetite is out of control! I learned these rules on my own through trial and error but, now there's this WONDERFUL book that spells it out for you. Come on can I make it any easier for you?

The Story

One evening while out at bar a man who was walking by me grabbed my arm and said . . . (drum roll please ) "YOU'RE PRETTY HOT FOR A BIG GIRL." I was so taken back by his statement that I actually had no reaction at all, just total and complete numbness. That was the exact moment I knew I had to do something about my 55 pound weight gain that had gradually taken place over the course of 3 years. (5'3, 175 lbs.)

I had just celebrated my 30th birthday and what in the HELL had happened to my body?! Okay I'll tell you what happened . . . fast food, take out, late night gas station food runs, binge drinking etc. etc. etc. That's what the hell happened! Junk in the trunk, oh yes there was lots! So what did I do? Well obviously I ran out to the nearest book store and bought several 'road to no where' books as I like to call them. You know the ones in the diet/weightloss section and failed miserably in my mission. So I said to myself diets are for LOSERS and I love to WIN so I moved onto plan B! I was not going to diet, all I was going to do was eat healthy. Yes that's it, plain and simple! And so my journey began, I read books based on nutrition, got motivated by the contestants on the Biggest Loser, listened to EVERYTHING Dr. OZ had to say and got my a** moving!

Three years later the weight is still off, I feel better and look better than I ever have in my ENTIRE life! I actually look ten years younger, YES I'm serious! I would like to take a moment to thank that drunk a**hole in the bar and to ALL the men that wouldn't date me when I was a BIG girl I say LOOK AT ME NOW . . . WINK WINK ;)
