Getting through it
I had the longest week ever but I’m glad to say that it was a productive one. I am blessed that I have the opportunity to make a better life for me and my baby girl. However, you know I have some things that I have to talk about: one is my journey as a vegetarian, two is him (yes him still), three is people who never mind their business..lol This one is one that I know that I will always deal with for the rest of my life but it’s okay because I’m not even letting it get to me ( okay maybe it got to me a little....lol)
It’s been five months since I gave up eating meat and this include seafood too. It wasn’t hard to give up eating meat totally because I was never really a huge meat eater. I gave up eating beef and pork about 12 years ago; it was right after I had my daughter. Now let me tell you giving up eating seafood has been the hardest in my journey but I don’t need it as much as I want it. The question that I’m always asked is did you give up eating meat to lose weight and I tell people that losing weight shouldn’t be a reason why you give up meat. I gave up meat because I didn’t desire to eat it as much as others and it is much healthier choice to me. Again this is my opinion and I’m entitled to it and so are you. I have this saying when people tell me that they can’t go without eat meat I tell them “When you were born you didn’t eat meat, your mother provided you with milk which was enough protein and nutrients to keep you healthy and when you where old enough to eat she feed you veggies and fruit” Of course when you got older you where introduced to meat. Think about it like this if your mother never introduced you to eating meat you wouldn’t crave it now. You have to train you mind that you no longer want meat it’s what I’m doing and it has worked for me so far. I started this out as a 30 day weight loss challenge and I continued it just to see how long I could go without it. Then I read some things about the affects meat have on your body. I’m no nutritionist but it doesn’t take a degree to know that eating certain foods can have a huge affect on your body. I bought a nurtibullet and it has been my best friend and I love it. I’ve been making smoothies everyday and I’ve been full from them. I’m still learning and I know every now and then I have my cravings for a nice piece of juicy chicken but I don’t have the desire for it anymore. Hey you have to find what’s good for you. Whether it’s eating meat or becoming a vegetarian. I can’t be a vegan because I love my dairy products and I’m not training my mind to not want it….lol I love cheese
I had a conversation via text with him (Mr. Wrong, right guy) it was basically asking him how he felt about us being friends and he said that sex had complicated our relationship and he couldn’t move forward and he didn’t feel I should move forward either. He said that carrying an old sex flam as friend into your new relationship is distrustful and disrespectful. He also said that the sex is a barrier now and it can’t be removed. For the life of me I couldn’t understand how being friends with someone you had sex with is a problem. I mean come on I didn’t have a sexual relationship with him we had sex one weekend and I can move past that. I don’t desire him in that way and I of course did respond to his message. I told him he shouldn’t look at sex as a barrier to continue a friendship because our relationship wasn’t built on sex. We made a choice to become intimate and it changed the relationship. Sad as it may be I don’t feel like we should dwell on the past and keep looking at the fact that things didn’t work out in our favor. Okay, why would you not want to move forward if you feel the friendship is worth saving. Now if you don’t feel its worth saving then I can understand the reason a person wouldn’t want to move forward. I was a bit confused because in one breath when I told him I missed him he told me he was glad to see that I thought about our relationship (which clearly we don’t have). I mean can someone make me understand how you can say you can move forward yet you’re happy that I still think about you. I’m sorry men can’t say that woman is the only emotional creatures out there because that is far from true. I wanted to say to him you can’t move forward because you are still afraid to face what you really feel for me. However, I didn’t say anything because I ‘m not afraid to say what I feel and it’s not that way for him. All I can say is that people always miss out on great opportunities because of fear.
Mind your own business…lol Gosh, I’m so tired of people who don’t know their place in your life. I’m not going to go hard on this one because it’s a simple solution to this. When someone that is not approved in your circle invite themselves in your business, check them right away. They will always feel they have the right to say and do what they want because you haven’t checked them. I feel that at this point in my life I’m too mature to be dealing bullshit. I don’t throw subs I simply let them know what it is from the gate.
So I’ve been changing up my look a little and I think it’s time to share…. Enjoy the pictures and love yourself first because no one will love you more than you love yourself. You can follow me on Instagram: @Black_Betty79
