The Breakup.

One month ago. We broke up.

It happened. I became enlightened about my eating habits and ways to change them. I went on the Lithe Escape to the Highland House in Jamaica (an absolutely amazing experience and beautiful place). It was 5 days for pure relaxation, lithe-ing, and everything we ate was organic. Organic to the point where it was grown right there on the property. During this trip, I discovered/realized the physical changes that can take place when you take care of what you put into your body -- (those 100 calorie packs don't count!)

I also learned about the true unhealthiness of lunchmeat. Let's compare it to Heidi Montag's "new look". Now I have eaten turkey and cheese sandwiches on a daily basis for as long as I can remember. Finding out that this was not good for me is like finding out your boyfriend cheated on you. From that moment, I knew we had to break up.
