Often times we look outside ourselves to feel better about our appearance, work life, or even home life. We look for what I call, "fixers." Things, events, drinks, food etc. that temporarily fix how we feel.
Interesting enough, feeling better about yourself (really, anything in life) will always start with you.
Don't be afraid to dig deep and realize why are you eating or drinking that? Why are you going to this place? Do you really want to go or eat that? It's OK to admit that eating three fudge brownies and it'll help you feel better during the day.
Try for about a week to eliminate dairy, and gluten from your diet, just to see how you feel.
Also, try to eliminate the white carbs (white rice, bread, pastas) etc. and observe how your body reacts. Honestly, it'll be DIFFICULT to do at first and you'll begin craving those items, but after the first few days it'll subside.
Also, want to lose a few pounds? Don't drink your calories -- if you want something that tastes good, try some Tazo Passion Tea, or Green Tea.
Not eating those last few bites or not adding that salt and butter to your popcorn, can cut back on your caloric intake and help the overall health of your body.
