Last round I talked about the inner critic. That inner critic that tried to tell me this journey would be too had was so very mistaken. Sure it's not always easy and sometimes I wish I could just eat like everyone else but then I think about how much healthier I am and how many amazing foods I eat and she shuts up.
Today I want to talk about the outer critics. Those people who think we are silly or crazy for doing this. Honestly I have yet to really meet these critics. I have told more and more people what I am doing and it has all been met with great responses. Sure a couple of people said how hard it was going to be and more than one was concerned with the fact that I might not be able to have wine ever again. Everyone ended with a positive comment though. I know this lifestyle change isn't for everyone. I know that some people can control their sugar intake and not go overboard. I however am not one of those people. The longer I do this the more I know it was the right decision. The critics aren't nearly as critical as I expected and the one inside my head has taken a hike. Before I know it I'll be months into this new world and not even remember what it was like to eat sugar filled foods all day, everyday.
