Why do I get the feeling that wasn't a compliment??

I just ate 3/4 cup of almond M&M's, instead of the 1/4 cup serving I meant to eat...

OK, I'm going to jump on the band wagon here in hopes that I can stay focused on eating healthier. As a whole, my family tries to eat as natural, as organic & healthy as possible, but I think we can do a little better. Due to illness I have a low metabolism and energy, so I'm on a plan to help energize me. I'm trying to be more diligent in remembering to take my vitamins, b/c I know that can only help. I had a 6 hr iron transfusion the end of Nov and I have a little more energy. Due to illness I was serverly anemic, but w/ the transfusion I don't have to take the horrible high iron pills and it should restore my body the it's iron supply for a whole yr...pretty amazing, huh. The low energy has been devasting, b/c I use to be a ball of energy and go non stop....so that has been depressing, but it's getting better. I am staying positive. I do weight training 2 x's a week, but haven't had the energy lately to my usual cardio & yoga routine, but hopefully I will soon. I try not to miss the weight training or I'd really feel like crap. I've been active my whole life, but about 10 - 11 yrs ago my metabolism pretty much stopped and it's been a struggle to maintain my perfect weight since then. I have great Doctors that are getting me balanced. I unfortunately have bad genetics and If I wasn't as healthy as I am would be way worse off than I am. hopefully posting here can help me stay on track.
