yea I agree with you on that. Life is air, water, food, shelter. When one of those gets f’d too much, we got massive survival future issues for sure.
you said: Now whenever I lapse I feel it hard the next couple days—
AND THIS HAS to be our learning. We must learn from our personal experiences cause when one does not acknowledge the truths of what their food intake is actually doing to them, thru some knowledge and true physical misery, then ya ain’t got a prayer.
It is like keeping going back for a small dose of cyanide over and over…cause…well I like it LOL
Learn. Everyone learn and change. Other than that the vicious cycle of never moving forward for long term results will never come.
The mind MUST change with truths as we eat differently and learn how our bodies react. No real mind change, no desire for true health, no forward movement long term great results. Hamster on the misery wheel for many over and over. Then the ‘I give up’.
SO everyone MUST learn from it all LOL
Hey I had to and darn it was hard. Hard to swallow. Hard to accept and change thru it all but if one does, one gets there to the final best health plan one can survive long term. One doesn’t do mind work on themselves as they focus on eating better and lapse back over and over, if no conscious effort on why they lapse back and learn truths about themselves…ain’t got a prayer for real change and probably doesn’t really desire big change cause ‘it is just too darn hard’ and oh boy I said that alot of times in the past!
Humans are the hardest to ever ‘retrain the brain’. Teach a dog to sit with a bacon strip. Oh yea he gets it. Let a kid touch something hot you said don’t touch that, with real pain, oh yea that kid gets it long term, teach any other species something and they get it with mind change and acceptance, humans are very hard to accept their real fates. Well, not sure about all but darn I was one who fought the real truths of what it took for me to get real long term great change. Like I had to club myself over the head a few times and think, omg what is wrong with me? I know what to do, just take action and hold that action but as always, backsliding cause it was ok to suffer a few days for that food…now you can’t get me to eat off plan to that level.
Time and learning and change we desire so much we take all actions to keep that change in force I guess. I am there now but darn if it ain’t a long row to sow for many of us.
ohhh, got off on a rant a bit about me and what it took for my changes
