Eating Healthy: Is This is in Your Body?

I saw this video and knew I had to share it with you.  If you’re addicted to fast food restaurants (in this video’s case, McDonald’s), this just might change your mind.

I know, I know — fast food is easy and, well, fast.  Your schedule doesn’t always let you eat properly, or healthy food is hard to find when you need it.

Now I rarely eat at a fast food restaurant — maybe chili at Wendy’s, but long ago I gave up on the Whoppers and such.  I have succumbed, however, to a plain hamburger a couple-three times in the last year.

Not anymore.  Now I’m not a die-hard gotta-be-organic person, although I prefer it when I can get a good price on it.  And I’ve been trying to watch out for HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) and the trans-fats and get them out of the house altogether.  I haven’t kept a really close eye on the preservatives as I should have.

I think I will now.  granted, we do need some sort of preservatives in some foods (after all, vitamin E is a preservative, too), but if it’s something more than 15 letters long….maybe it shouldn’t be in my food.

I digress — take a look at this video and then think twice before visiting a fast-food restaurant then next time you’re out and about.

Dieting Quotes

Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life. — Phillip C. McGraw
