Food Revolution

I have become very food conscience since this series began. I was changed the first time I saw the show. I have become quite the reverse junk eater over the past few weeks. I am here to tell ya, no one can match me on eating chocolate for breakfast, ice cream for snacks, fried foods for lunch and dinner, and drinking a 12 pack of coke a day. Not to mention I feel like I have to have popcorn with extra butter every time I go to a movie, I love having baked goods in the house, and talk about frozen coffee on a hot summer day. I absolutely love junk! All that has changed for me since this show. I eat fruit every day, I drink mainly water with a coke every now and then, fresh foods instead of frozen, breakfast every morning, yogurt, and smoothies. I really have just chosen better. Everything I am eating now I have always eaten, I am just eating more of it and leaving out the bad. My body feels better, I work out every day, and I am motivated to do my best at staying healthy.

However, now that I have made the change, my mind keeps thinking my body should become as solid as a rock and have results immediately......but that really hasn't happened just yet. I am still working on that part of it. 

If you have not seen this show, please watch it. You don't realize just how bad things are for you. Even at a young age, you will be amazed. I know I was. Eating better just allows for the bad things to be even better and worth having every now and then. It's like a present!

This first episode was an eye opener. I was eating most of what this obese family was eating every week....maybe not the amount but it opened my eyes to what my life could be if I wasn't active, didn't have hobbies, and never participated in events. It also showed me just how unhealthy my life could be later in life not just for me but my family.

If you are committed to living a healthy life, let me know! It is so motivating to see others doing the same thing. It also helps to get tips and encouragement because we are all gonna fall off the wagon every now and then. I know I will when I set sail and have yummy food all around me!  Post what you are doing in your daily life.
