A friend suggested a documentary and I decided to watch it today while kiddies were napping. It's called "Food Matters". I am blown away by how many documentary have been made in the last 5 years about our health crisis! It makes me so happy that these movies have been made and that people are watching them!
One thing that was mentioned in the movie that really spoke to me, was how our health is our responsibility. It is! No one else is in charge of how we take care of our body. There are so many diets out there that lead people in the wrong direction, and so many people start these diets half-heartedly and are literally doomed to fail and end up yo-yo dieting. You have to be willing to read, research and DIG and find out all you can about the health epidemic and then WANT to change. Otherwise, like any other diet, you are doomed to fail. Sure, eating that bag of chips, or that popcorn, or that chocolate bar would make you feel so good at the time. And taste SO good!
...But wouldn't you rather be healthy? To have that satisfaction that you are disease free, not overweight, reducing your chance of chronic illness by more then 50%, have more energy, save money, be balanced body and mind? Not to mention the mental and emotional benefits to eating properly! The self-satisfaction is endless!
It takes a lifestyle change.
Here's a link to the trailer for Food Matters.
