I got a comment on my acne post that got under my skin a bit. This person said there is no cure for acne. and I don’t agree. There are cures for most issues. some are medical and some are natural. and while natural cures take longer, they are more effective. ( in my opinion)

and i’m not a doctor, so there are things that I don’t know.. but I have seen nature work for things that popping pills did not work for. I’m not delusional. I believe if you have life threatening illnesses like Cancer you need to see a physician.  but for things like acne, yeast infections, irregular cycles, aches and pains, digestive issues ect.  A lot of them can be helped, managed and cured by medicinal plants and herbs. Why do I believe that? Because I’m living it. I’ve seen other people live it. Yes it’s hard to give up the things you love. I definitely just complained about back sliding on facebook. I lost 30lbs over 6 months and gained back 15 in 2.

It’s frustrating. I know what I’m supposed to do but I don’t do it. Its easier to skip breakfast and eat one meal around 2pm and not have to worry about food for the rest of the day. Its easier to find filling trash for cheap… rather than spending the time and money to be healthy. and While obesity or weight issues are not caused by laziness… we have to admit that some of it is just simply a lack of will power. It’s a lack of time management. It’s hard to find the time to make a diet work. Its hard to cut out our favorite foods  and drinks. ITS SO HARD. but i found its worth it when the jeans u wanted to wear finally fit again or when you don’t have to go all the way to the plus size section in the back.

And some people are perfectly content with their weight. They are healthy and happy and that’s fine, but i’m not happy. I’m healthy, my blood sugar is fine, my cholesterol is fine, my blood pressure is “TEXT BOOK GREAT” but my self esteem is not. so… i’m starting over. and i’m using my blog and friends to hold me accountable I’m not looking for a quick fix. it took time to put on the weight. so it will take time to take it off. But i’m gonna stay on track and keep you all updated.

and if u want to join me.. message me blogginstephb88@live.com and we can do this thing together.
