Why am I an Emo kid?

I'm 30 years old for God's sake, why am I feeling like an Emo teen? Did you ever think you would be emotional while doing a detox? - Which is about your internal body and food.... not feelings.... RIGHT???

Wrong!

Why do we eat? - To fuel and run our bodies.

Why do we eat in the 21st century industrialized and internetized society? - Because we're bored, stressed out, tired, anxious, scared, lonely, nervous, happy, with friends and family, excited, angry.....


That is why I'm an Emo kid. I've been given a structured, set meal plan and meal schedule. I'm committed to sticking with it. Since I won't eat when I'm - bored, stressed out, tired, anxious, scared, lonely, nervous, happy, with friends and family, excited or angry - I actually have to FEEL these feelings. I have to acknowledge them, work through them and honor them.

Another reason I believe I've been feeling a little off kilter is that I haven't been working out as much as I was. I'm missing all those good feeling endorphins, as well as the camaraderie of my friends at the Y, time away from the kids and just my self-identified ME time.

So, if you're interested in doing a detox I want you to know that it is more than just about losing a few pounds and getting clean. It is about changing your life. You will have so many other things going on besides just losing a few pounds. It is seriously a bootcamp for your life and body.

I also recommend doing the Ultimate Reset with a group of people. You can talk about your feelings with them and they will know exactly what you're going through. If you're interested please message me or email me at angela_marie19@yahoo.com - I'm going to be starting a group of people doing the Reset together on September 5th, 2012 (for all of you Plymouth people, that will be AFTER the Blueberry Festival of course) and plan on running them throughout the years to come.

Are you ready to change your life?

  1. Ang, I think its an excellent point about how food can be a way of hiding from feelings, and it has to be hard to go through this. it sucks to feel feelings sometimes, speaking for myself, and its tempting to run from them. thanks for sharing yourself so openly.
