Health Freak!!!!....or just Health Concious!!!...  

well, honestly i think it is great that you are health concious. I don't think you are a health freak at all! Not, that it would be a bad thing. It's wonderful that you were able to change your life for the better after all the health issues yoou dealt with in the past. There are many people who would have kept n the wrong path, but it is great that you realized and know how important your life is and you made that healthy change to better yourself. It isn't always easy to be healthy, i try, but i do slip more often than not! Congrats on being health concious, you should be proud!

I think you are probably just being health conscious. It's a good thing to be to it sounds like. You can't afford to have major health issues at your young age.

I think the distinction between health concious and health freak depends on 2 criteria.

1) Do you try to push your health concious choices on others or lecture them about their choices? If you do, you are crossing over the line from health concious to health freak.

2) Do you ever "take a break" and consume things that you know are not the best choices? Special holidays, anniversaries, birthdays, etc. If you never "cheat" then you have crossed the line to health freak. Occasional lapses are normal under special circumstances; but, unless you actually have a life threatening allergic reaction to a particular food, never allowing a lapse is obsessive.

Hi Shenlynn dear friend
Absolutely not do I think you are overreacting.
One must eat healthy or pay the price with ill effects.
What? I did not know one could get bladder stones..kidney yes, but not bladder?
Was it bladder stones then dear?
I am so happy to hear you are in excellent health now, for you have many years ahead to stay alive and stay in wonderful health for your little child.
You must live a long healthy life, to see your child grow up and grow older.
I try to be healthy too but lately I have not been able to afford what I need to do so.

it doesn't really matter what other people say about you... it is your life and your health... so even though you are being a health freak, so what??? who doesn't want to be healthy??? nobody want to get sick because it is very uncomfortable and costly... and i don't think that you are a health freak at all... you are just being conscious of your health because you experience bad health before and you want to be cautious about it... there is nothing wrong with that... so just ignore what other people say about you... take care and have a nice day...

I also had the same experience when I was in college. I didnt get to eat a lot of healthy food. the advantage was that I go home every weekend and I get to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables when I was at home. My mom was also aware of that fact so she always cook something for me that will help cope with the nutrition I missed when I am in school. I think its okay to be a health freak or whatever you call it cause there are already a lot of people who really dont care a lot about their health and its sad to know that the case is like that. Its always better to be healthy.

well when one arrives at the verge of loosing health one becomes a freak!and when one makes up mind to rejenuvate it we may tend to be lokking like afreak!so its better to take precautions!what do you say friend!happy lotting!

If you think you are a freak, a health freak that is, then there are tons of freaks out there in the streets. No, of course you are not a health freak, but a health-conscious lady. Taking care of our health is our own responsibilities. By controlling what we eat, and eating more of what we should, we are doing ourselves a big service.
