Just One More

We have all said the famous line, "Just one more!" I don't know about you guys, but "Just one more!" never and I do mean never, means "Just one more." It doesn't matter what we're talking about. It could be cookies, cake, candy- basically anything with sugar and a heap of unhealthiness that we don't need.

Believe it or not those, "Just one more" 's add up. Every time you say it and eat another cookie or another brownie or whatever your go-to food-drug is, your adding extra calories and extra sugar to your body that you probably don't need in the first place. I am so guilty of this. My kryptonite, if you will, is Goldfish! My biggest problem with them is that while I'm reading a book or scrolling on Pinterest (you can follow me here) I'm no longer paying attention to how many Goldfish I'm actually eating. There has been occasions where I've eaten half a bag- not because I was hungry, but because I was essentially bored and distracted.

This is the worst form of snacking there is. When you're actually hungry, your stomach will send your brain a message, which results in hunger pains. When you randomly stroll into the kitchen, and say to yourself, "Hmm, I want a cupcake!" You're not actually hungry. You just see the cupcake and therefore you want it. If you make a conscious effort to cut out the extra snacking and  the "Just one more!" 's from your life, I know you'll begin to see a huge difference!

Hey guys!

I’m Summer and I run Southern Girl’s Speak  or SGS. Why the name? Well, I’m from the South. I’m a girl. And I plan on speaking a whole lot! How did SGS start? Well, I have a best friend, and if you have a best friend, you know that you talk to them about EVERYTHING and I do mean everything. After having so many conversations with her, her name’s Elizabeth by the way, I came up with the idea to share our knowledge on everything from guys, to girls, from clothes to hair, from relationships to best friends and everything in between. The thing is, most of this stuff is simple. Most of it is stuff you should already know. And some of it is just common sense. However, people seem to not know this stuff or maybe you guys just need your memories refreshed! Well, that’s where we come in! Why should we be the only two girls to gain from from all of this?
