gravestone self-care

There’s nothing I find (or at least I think I find) more attractive than someone who cares about themselves.  I don’t mean this in a narcissistic kind of way – but someone who works out, someone who eats on a regular schedule, someone who thinks about what they eat, someone who schedules self-care time into their schedule.  When they do this for themselves, it opens them up to encourage you to do the same. 

​The truth is that the obesity epidemic and the greed mentality has driven our level of self care to the gravestone.  We hide behind our fat. It becomes a layer underneath which we cannot see a way to pull back on our old habits which we unknowingly formed by using food as an emotional crutch or just simply eating too much of a bad thing the food industry sold us – the addiction that food has become. It is important to guard against unnatural things that become addictions – gambling, eating processed foods, etc.
