Health At Every Size - The Start of The Journey
Admittedly I haven’t been the most health focused individual. I didn’t seek out the low-fat option, white vs. whole wheat was never a second thought and nothing was ever “on the side”. But ever since I turned 30, I’ve noticed major changes in my body and health. Over the last year I’ve been sick more times than usual and my recovery time has been longer than ever before. Also considering some new developments with both my mother and grandmother’s health, I’ve decided that I make some changes in my life, for my health.
Health
is a hard word to deal with as a plus size woman. Fat politics and fat policing are always connected back to the concept that a “fat” person couldn’t possibly be healthy or health conscious. There’s so much negativity surrounding the idea of a person not necessarily wanting to be thin, but healthy. You can be healthy at any size!
Health At Every Size is something that is very important to me and I am excited to bring it to the blog! As of last week, I started a cleaner eating regime. I’m trying to cut out some things that I know are not the best for me and become a little more active in my daily life.
Today I’ve started a three day juice cleanse. I’ve partnered with the good people at
to kick start my journey, as I change up some things. After the rough winter I’ve had immune system wise, it’s the perfect way to reset my body and start fresh. On Thursday I’ll have a post up about my thoughts on the cleanse. So far so good! Please check out Cedar Juice and if you’re interested they have given me a discount code.
