I really wish my locally owned and operated Market would stock vegetables from the local farms and greenhouses instead of Europe.

`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven. Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore - I actually love junk food. Besides too much of anything is bad for you, including organic food. ._. Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!' Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

Right? I think it's insane how expensive organic and health food is! We should be encouraging healthy eating and discouraging unhealthy eating. D:
I love junk food, too. But simply put, if you wish to be healthy, it should be a sparing thing.
As for organic food. Technically, no. If you ate way too much food, or way too much of one type of organic food, it would be bad for you. However, if all you did was eat a normal amount of calories with only organic food, and making sure to get the proper serving suggestions for each type of food {Grain, veggie, fruit, etc} it would in no way, shape, or form, be bad for you.

I can't eat unhealthy, because my body like... revolts afterwards. Even if I try to get something healthier, like a grilled snack wrap at a fast food restaurant, I feel sick afterwards. I've been working on losing weight recently, so I've cut back on my fast food pretty dramatically (I didn't even eat that much to begin with either) and now any time I eat it, I regret is almost immediately. I don't drink soda either, for the same reason. I have a major sweet tooth though, it's my downfall.
Honestly, most of my bad calories probably come from sweet and occasionally alcohol xD
I've actually found eating healthier to be cheaper thus far, since I'm buy less packaged food. Of course, I shop at Wal Mart, so most of the produce isn't organic.

Yup, I've been losing weight, as well. Around forty pounds, so far! Only ten pounds left to my target! {Probably less. I haven't weighed myself in awhile}
I know what you mean about eating unhealthy. My body always always feels terrible when I would give in and eat healthy. But after my latest experience the very sight of unhealthy food makes me sick, so that's a plus, I suppose. XD
I never really ate fast food, but when I gained around fifty pounds it was because I ate a lot of carbs and sweet. Like, seriously, my diet consisted of, usually, no breakfast, then later a tofu dog, fries {Luckily just frozen, but still, chocolate, cereal, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, potatoes, another sandwich with tofurky. D:
Now I eat so much less and I know what you mean that it's cheaper. My breakfast is just low-fat yogurt with berries and kashi cereal, later I'll have a snack of fruits, veggies, or a 100% whole wheat english muffin and a soy nugget, and for dinner tofu with three servings of veggies. I feel so much better, and it definitely costs less. :] Although, we got a store called Earthfare recently. They're VERY cheap.

I lost like 20 lbs when I was in the 8th grade simply by cutting back on fried food and sizing back meal portions. I also stopped drinking soda cold turkey, which I think was a huge reason. So many empty calories.
I've been hovering around 130 to 140 since then, and I'm finally committed to losing the last 15-20lbs. Once my show closes this week I'm gonna hit the gym almost every day. I think my issues is now less diet and more exercise. My work out routine this semester has been foiled thus far, but after Sunday my schedule clears up a ton and I'll be able to go to the gym a lot. Also, I love yoga. heart

Also, I love yoga. heart Since I went vegetarian it's been easier for me to not be overweight. Obviously I can still gain weight if I go into the pattern of starches, but it seems like it takes longer. It took me over a year of eating like I did above to gain fifty pounds. And yeah, changing portion sizes seemed to work wonders for me. And eating breakfast. What's your height? You must be shorter than me, cuz the lowest healthy weight I can be is 120. XD I've been exercising now that I've lost enough weight. Sadly, it still takes getting used to. I'm mostly used to it now, but I'm sick, so it was hard to do today. D:

`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven. Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore - Argh. So this b***h who used to be friend came into my friend's imvu last night. She was telling this guy who apparently likes me (diff guy) to stop spamming the room, I simply told her to stop ordering people around when it's not her room, which is true. She went off on me telling me to keep my nose out of her "business" when it's not even her room, and I was just correcting her behavior. Her and my friend whose the room owner exchanged words via whisper and continued it in whisper in another room. Naturally the ex friend left and told her friends what happened but left out that my friend apologized, and that she was the one who started the whole thing. So her friend started attacking my friend and judged her. I mean what the ********? Can people not be arsed with getting the facts? Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!' Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

@Freelance and Vio Awesome guys. I probably need to loose some weight myself. I'm pushing 250 lbs and I'm 5'11"
@Rai Most people like jumping to conclusions it seems.
@Militant That was an awesome post on the marriage. I had always figured it was something along those lines but I didn't know for certain. Thank you so much for doing that research and sharing it.

Okay I have off work till Saturday Morning. Hopefully I will get my car fixed. I just need to go get a battery but I'll probably have to wait until 2pm for my ride to help me go to Walmart and trade in my battery. The guy that's giving me a ride though is in a funk today so he might flake on even showing up.

`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven. Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore - Firefox keeps closing on me which is pissing me off.
And I love how even though my facebook says I'm a heretic, I keep getting adds for pagan jewelry, magical spells, and that Sacred Mists Wiccan College thingy xD Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!' Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
