I FOUND THE SECRET!

Today I saw a very obese woman climb onto the bus holding a large paper cup of soda from Wendy’s. It hit me that I want to change my approach to food altogether. In that moment I told myself I’d stop eating fast food and get myself fit. Then I thought about her.

“How would her life change if she had a different approach to food,” I thought.

It’s easy to imagine eating nothing but healthy vegetable rich meals with natural ingredients. But when it comes down to it why do we (yes, you are included in this) chose to eat something so bad for us?

Want to know the secret?

It’s a choice.

We choose to eat this way. We like it. We get something out of it. It might be a cause and it might be a reaction, but either way we make the decision to eat the foods we ingest.

Unless you are reading this from a prison cell, you can change your diet. Actually, let me rephrase that.

Unless we are in prison (myself included) we CAN CHANGE. It’s a choice.

For me I have to make my choice correspond with some kind of ritual. My decision to quit sugar had to coincide with my birthday and this blog.

I have managed to avoid “hard sweets” and my cravings for such foods have greatly diminished.

I am now making a choice. Here is my commitment: I am going to eat less and eat better. I"m going to search out alternative snacks at every opportunity and write about my findings.
