Choices and Excuses For Food We Eat

Far too often people try to blame others for their problems. That irresponsible attitude is seeping into food choices as well. "It looked so good", "I had to eat it", "but it's so fast and easy", "I don't cook much", and "I work and don't have time to cook". Even if it is, each person still has the responsibility of deciding what they will and will not put in their mouths. We have never been force fed French fries, cookies, cake or fried chicken.

Think about it. I sure know I am guilty on occasion. It's all about choices we make. make good choices!

Well said, Karla! I find it interesting when people complain about not losing and then add the comments like those you listed above. We all need to take responsibility for our actions!!

Amen Karla. I agree 110 %. The choice has always been ours since surgery if we are going to be successful or not so successful. Life is full of all kinds of choices and sometimes we make wise ones and sometimes ....well lets just say we have to begin again and do a do-over day. Have a great day !!!

Very well said, Karla.

I'm guilty of this thought process too. It's MY choice what I fuel my body with, no one elses.
