Carbless Happiness

I don’t think I am consistently aware how important Good Health is. I mean, I see my little ones run around all day and wonder if that was possible that I ever had that much energy. And when I am living a VERY healthy lifestyle I know that I can achieve high energy, but when I cheat or my life gets in the way (Ie, like right now, sitting at the hospital with my mother law, with nothing fresh to eat. But the positive is an abundance of ice chips and water).

After I was jolted into remembering how important it is to have health (and age) on my side, I am sorrowful and embarrassed by the silly stuff I eat and drink just to get a food high, when all along I could be doing healthy things for my body. I know my exercising, about five times a week, helps a lot, it is better then being sedentary (if you can call a mom of 3 under 8 lazy). But, I am realizing that I have much to do starting today to get into better health. I am blessed to have this reminder.
