The Hurt Inside.

I hear,

From your eye falls a tear,

The hurt again drives you insane,

Such a drain,

For what we see,

Can't set us free,

It hurts deep inside,

It has been one emotional ride,

We try to hold on,

But we know we are gone,

For the pain to disappear,

You can whisper in her ear,

But it isn't enough,

You try to be tough,

For all you see here,

You tried to protect my heart and keep it near,

For that has been done,

You are done,

When it rains it sure does pour,

From life you hoped for more,

You wanted you to soothe and be the injection you needed for now,

You don't know how,

The fool is me,

I feel embarrassed by me,

For the fake smile on my face,

In public you try to handle myself in grace,

The dark nights here your cries,

As you re-think over all the lies,

For now the pain is too strong,

I have cried far too long.

Sophie

COOKING TIPS

#1
Feeling sluggish and rubbish when you have woken up? Get boosting up on bananas the more the better - they will help settle your stomach, boosting digestion, they are a mood enhancer, they will give you the energy you need and keep you full. Buy my book for banana receipe ideas.
 
#2
Wake up every morning and ATLEAST have one glass of lemon water before doing anything else! Ideally try to drink a litre of water. The lemon wakes up your digestive system ready for the day and has great cleansing properties.
 
#3
Check your dairy and meat intake - dairy can sit in your system for up to seven days unable to digest properly. Meaning other foods also get neglected and nurtients aren't absorbed properly and you feel extremely bloated. Go and smell your food bin, your stomach will be in that state. Rotting foods in your belly - hmm nice.
 
#4
DO NOT FEAR CARBS - THEY ARE NOT THE ENEMY! CARB UP!!
Bananas, Rice, Potatoes, Leafy Greens, Corn, Beans, Lentils etc PACK THEM IN GO MAD.
 
#5
NEVER COUNT CALORIES - NEVER RESTRICT!! These restriction 'starvation' diets who tell you to only eat 500 calories a day then have a treat day - where you binge out and eat WAY too much, is simply messing up your metabolism and on your binge days yours body stores all the fat meaning you gain weight because it knows it is going to go back into starvation mode and needs to hold onto every little thing it can. HELLO WEIGHT GAIN. 

Life is too short not to live it to the full, making yourself happy.
