Making Better Choices…

I’m trying to lose weight again. But this is probably the most serious I’ve been about it ever. I’m disgusted by the sight of me naked. My clothes all fit horribly. My gut is the size of a Yamaha generator. I’m just tired of being fat.

So, the other day I’m driving home and decide to get fast food for the family for dinner because time is short. You know how that goes. At first, I’m thinking McDonald’s because the kids like it, but then I know that the food is all fried and unhealthy. I’ll get the kids McDonald’s and I’ll get something else.

But then it occurs to me. If I’m not going to eat that garbage, why am I going to feed it to my kids? Instead, I headed to Subway and got something moderately healthy. For everybody. Take that, you clown.

    Amen, so glad you had this thought. Kids do eat ‘crap’ all the time in America. Even things we think are healthy sometimes qualifies better as products than food. Good for you, good for them….good for all of you, Dad!!!!! Way to go! No one ever said, “Man, I really regret eating healthy food.” Well….maybe someone did but not in general :)
