eaching for unhealthy foods is convenient. Punching
a button on the vending machine or pulling into
a drive thru is certainly far more appealing than
cooking salmon or chopping vegetables, especially when I
am hungry and hurried.
On the other hand, preparing healthy meals is time
consuming, but it is certainly worth the effort.
My health is important to me. It takes precedence over the
convenience of 5-minute meals. Convenience always comes
at a price. In this case, the price I’m paying is sacrificing
nutrition and playing Russian roulette with my health!

HEALTH
Healthy eating revitalizes my life!
My good health enables me to play with my children, keep
my physique in good shape, cut down on medical expenses,
and increase my lifespan.
I would be a fool to pass up all of these benefits in favor of a
quick burger or a bar of chocolate! For this reason, I make it
a point to cook healthy meals and make conscious decisions
when it comes to snacks.
Healthy foods taste better, fresher, and more wholesome
than unhealthy foods. Eating healthily also provides me with
a sense of empowerment.
Being busy is no longer an excuse.
There are millions of individuals that manage to check
off every task on their to-do list and still sit down for a
wholesome meal three times per day.
My body is a temple and I treat it like my most prized
possession!
Today, I change my life one granola bar at a time! I value my
well being and consume healthy meals to fortify my body
and soul.
Don’t allow being busy dictate your health and happiness.
There are simple solutions to accomplishing your personal
and professional goals while maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
SELF-REFLECTION QUESTIONS:
1. DO I RELY ON FOOD AS AN EMOTIONAL
ESCAPE FROM REALITY?
2. HOW MANY CALORIES DO I CONSUME
EACH DAY?
3. IS MY CALORIE CONSUMPTION ON PAR
WITH MY CALORIC NEEDS?
