I’m eating a cookie and trying to decide how I feel about it. I don’t feel guilty (which is good), and I am enjoying the flavor of the cookie, but I’m not entirely sure the flavor is “all that” and worth the calories, the sugar, and the junk.
I guess we just need to continually remind ourselves that with each bite we take we are making a decision. A decision to eat for health and vitality OR to eat for a quick fix, a pick-me-up.
We’re not perfect. We won’t always choose the high road. But if we choose to eat for health and vitality more often than not, and even improve from there, then we are on the road to a healthy weight and not only a light body, but a light and happy heart as well.
