Isn’t that sooooo true, your energy levels really soar when you eat clean and dump those processed foods!

You’re very fortunate that processed foods aren’t as prevalent in Chile. I’ve been in South America (not Chile yet) and I remember the population being much slimmer than the folks here in the States. You tend to walk a lot more too, just like in Europe.

While I believe that each of us must take personal responsibility for what we eat, there is still something to be said for the “processed food pushers”…..it tastes good, a lot of it is cheap, it’s convenient, and I understand why people get hooked on it, I’ve done it myself… although I suffered with mood swings, low energy, and that “can’t stop eating” way of life.

Eating clean is much better, I’m glad that you can relate.

I know so well what you mean, that reaction that your body throws right back at ‘cha when you are eating clean and then eat processed. Sometimes when I’ve done that, not only have my feelings been affected, but I’ve even felt strange in my body, and even my head. Sound weird? Well, there’s so many chemicals in processed food, it doesn’t “do a body good”.

Thanks a lot for your encouragement on my funk that I went through. You’re right, at least I pulled myself out of it, even if at the time I really didn’t want to (LOL)! Thanks Stephanie!
