why this journal?

why am i doing this? why this blog?

i'm not gluten free, i'm not low carb, i don't follow a paleo diet, i'm not vegetarian. i don't have food allergies, i have not given up sugar, i've never tried a cleanse.

exercise has never been a first love, and i don't belong to a gym. i'm not in training, i don't do crossfit, run marathons, half marathons or even 5K's. i've never tried yoga or zumba.

it's true that:

i love food. all kinds of food. food is family, friends, celebrations.
however....

i believe in health.
i believe in changing.
i believe in trying.
i believe in "the occassional".
i believe in splurging.
i believe in moderation.

i also believe in sharing....the ups, the downs, the successes, the failures. the new experiences, and those i'll try once and never again. i believe in humor. i believe in quitting...and starting again.

i believe in healing....
