i may never eat again.


Against my better judgement I watched a show last night called mystery diagnosis. this show was about a dancer who got really sick and it turns out it was from worms she got when she ate sushi. i really like sushi and i kinda knew from the beginning that i shouldn't keep watching but i did. sushi is something i eat weekly - sometimes twice a week and it isn't always cooked.

an image close to this one (thanks to wonderful editing) kept appearing throughout the show. this is worms.


it only got worse. they then had a scientist do some experiments on fish from a random fish market in the states to see what level of fish had the worms in them and it was so gross. i had screaming kids interrupting me but the bottom line i got was a lot of them had lots of worms in them and you are suppose to only eat fish that have been frozen for a while or cooked right or you could have live worms on your plate and ingest them.


how can something
this pretty possibly cause
any harm to your body?




i've decided my body is either going to be attacked by worms or i am going to get lead poisoning from eating a can good or drinking juice or get contaminated some way from taking tylenol.

could i ever be an iron girl??





iron girl is so appealing to me. my sisters, my girlfriends all racing together - no big sweaty cocky boys trying to beat the girls.

i think i am going to start training for it and plan on participating in a couple of years (no pressure :))

if you are interested - aflac is partnering with iron girl and is having a sweepstakes to win a gift card from sports authority here

“Don't be afraid to give up the good to go for the great.”



what are we so afraid of? how many of you feel like you are just doing what is "safe"? what does "safe" really even mean. isn't it just a state of mind?
