Quality

Five days down, twenty-five more to go.....This has been quite an experience thus far, you would be surprised how much better you feel by cutting out all the processed junk we call "food", you start to feel like what I can only imagine how we were meant to feel all along, long before high-fructose corn syrup or hydrogenated oils, or how about when they actually put on the box under "Ingredients: .....to preserve the product" why does it need preserving?  Besides the obvious reasons of pro-longed shelf life which in return cause the product to sit days, weeks and months on your local grocery market shelves, and then that in return cause the manufacturer to make more $cha-ching$, but why do we think it's fine to consume things that have no nutritional value?

Let me say it like this...would you go to a restaurant and find it perfectly satisfactory to order month old spaghetti? Or two week old broccoli cheddar soup?  Of course you wouldn't you would be appalled, you would want to speak to a manager if you knew you were paying for something that had just been sitting around, wonder why it's different with the foods we purchase at the grocery store.

I know we all like the convenience of boxed, pre-packaged foods, but to me there just has to come a point when we decide who we want to be, how healthy we want to stay, how young we want to appear, how much more energy we want to have, what quality of life do you want to live?  I want to live the best life I possibly can...I dont just want to kinda live it, knowing that there was more things that I could have done to better myself, to better the way I felt about who I was and what I stood for.

What are we living life for if we aren't willing to become what we were meant to be.  Our life starts now, not tomorrow, not next week, but right now, lets not waste anymore time with "someday" or "later", instead how about we take each day and live the crap out of it : )

I bid you all a farewell till tomorrow!
