Let's get rid of calling ourselves fat...

Sitting here waiting to be picked up for my trip to Montreal and panicking over the blog I haven't written.  During the writing of yesterdays blog I was thinking how much I hate people calling themselves fat and then doing such stupid stuff in the name of getting rid of fat.  Fat is good and has a purpose.  Fat is the body's protective system...we must have it in the form of body fat.  And we must have it in the form of nutrients.  Having said that, there's obviously an optimal amount of fat and too much and too little.  To have an optimal level of fat we must eat fat, protein and carbohydrates...that's just how it is.  If you take out your fat you'll get fat.  Sorry guys.  Now, there are good fats and bad fats and exactly how much and what kind of fat is good for you and bad for you will in large measure also depend upon if you're a fast oxidizer or a slow oxidizer; a protein, carbohydrate or mixed type.  It should be clear to all that to have an optimal and beautiful layer of fat on our body we must pay attention to our lifestyle habits.  If we're carrying too much fat we're often out of shape which encompasses being sedentary, not eating correctly and often not having our mental and emotional components in order (having a fat layer as a protection against our emotions or thoughts).

So the healthy lifestyle tip is if you aren't happy with how you look stop saying you are fat and start saying you are out of shape.  You can do something about that!!!!  Get in shape now!!!  Take a year and focus on yourself.  Please get in shape....it is fun to have a nice beautiful layer of fat covering beautiful muscles.  Today's picture says: 'always look for what is beautiful in yourself'.
