When I was a teenager and in my early 20s I ate like crap. It's only in the last few years that I've really made a change to concentrating on eating healthy foods, and the benefits in my life have been all over the place. I'm happier on average, more motivated to do things, more optimistic, I feel like I have energy, I can concentrate better... it's so worth it. It's just hard to break the habit and addiction to junk food, but once you do, you look at that crap like it's poison.

That isn't to say I never eat things like cookies or cake or whatever. It's just a special occasion now.

Hence the term poison. Junk food corrodes the body slowly but surely. Admittedly my teen years were not the healthiest either but I wasn't all that bad. Things changed rather rapidly once I started competing in karate as you need to be in near peak condition all year round. I like to treat myself at least once a week with some biscuits. It's my one weak spot when it comes to less healthier stuff but I make sure to at least buy biscuits on the healthier end of the scale. Water, Tea and fruit juice are my only beverages and while fruit juices do typically have a lot of natural occurring sugars, this is circumvented with all the exercise I do.

Back in university, a few times a week I would resort to oven meals, like pizza or fish and chips.
I cook all of my dinners now and I even prepare my own lunches at home. I have porridge for breakfast. I could seriously write a whole article on nutrition like I did for fitness.

And yeah I totally understand what you mean about having energy to do stuff more often with a healthy diet. It's a bit of a shame actually - under different circumstances we could have become friends.

Lack of energy is never a problem for me because of my ADHD.

Radiating May 13th, 2017 3:08 PM

GG Portugal won

Sothis May 13th, 2017 6:40 PM

I know I need to eat more healthy foods, but I guess things like microwave dinners are more accessible and I have no energy ever.

Somewhere_ May 13th, 2017 7:06 PM

I just over eat too much and dont exercise as much as I should.

I can down a big burger with bacon very quickly

Sothis May 13th, 2017 7:34 PM

I'm not much for bacon burgers, but throw me a bigmac and I'll down that lol

Radiating May 13th, 2017 7:37 PM

Am I the only one who doesn't like the Big Mac sauce they put on it?

Sothis May 13th, 2017 7:40 PM

Not sure! I'm sure there's others, I personally love it but everyone's got different tastes :)

tastes great to me

EC May 14th, 2017 5:20 PM

That's because it's full of sugar.

Gabri May 14th, 2017 6:36 PM

y'all talking as if sugar is the harbinger of the apocalypse

EC May 14th, 2017 6:40 PM

No, I'm only stating why something would taste good. I don't avoid sugar because of preconceived notions about it.

Somewhere_ May 14th, 2017 7:16 PM

sugar is the harbinger of happiness, not the apocalypse

Sothis May 14th, 2017 9:33 PM

My mom got this sweetener for the coffee and it's like sugar on steroids, its wayyyy sweet

blue May 15th, 2017 6:56 AM

i hate how much sugar i have in my coffee, but when i cut down it just tastes like boiled water basically

EC May 15th, 2017 7:50 AM

Nothing like having your pupils dilated for an eye exam. Blurriness and glare everywhere. Have to be a hipster and wear sunglasses indoors.

blue May 15th, 2017 8:49 AM

i had an eye exam couple of weeks ago and they put this yellow dye in the bottom of my eye. it literally made everything have yellow tint for about 30 seconds, just like having a filter on.
