Insomnia...

I've been awake since 3am. My dogs decided they didn't like each other and started to fight...normally they love being sisters (see below).
Anyway, I can't sleep now and they are snoozing their little butts off---in MY bed. They are lucky I love them so much. 


Maybe I can't sleep after watching a show a few days ago called "Food Matters". It's a terrifying show that basically enlightens you to the fact that you are overrun with toxins that are encased in a mucous membrane in fat cells. This is in order for the body to not start an inflammatory reaction on those toxins, so it encases it, forever forgetting it's there...making you fat, lazy, and prone to cancers. It also shits on SOME long term modern medicines, saying they only treat problems, not fix them. Makes sense if you ask me. 


So, my reasonable reaction to this is to buy a $120 juicer and vow to eat more organic and less meats/dairy. I imagine you will see me on here complaining that I can't live without Chinese food a day longer because it doesn't work in the juicer--sigh. 
I suppose trying to fix my diet is long overdue since I am a self proclaimed 50/60 pounds overweight---or shall I say obese. My husband would tell you otherwise, but I know better.


I stopped smoking November 2010, which was my step 1 of 3 to enjoy a better lifestyle and not feel trapped in my natural Michelin Man suit anymore. Step 2 of 3 surfaced as running. I love running. My ankles do not. We will return to this at a later date, most likely. Step 3 of 3 was to change my diet, which never showed it's face into my plan. Better late then never they say---don't they?
