So, have you ever heard the saying . . . "We Are, What We Eat" . . . my friends???
Well . . . it's "true" . . .
And in life . . . we become 1 of 2 kinds of people . . .
The ones that . . .
"Eat to survive" . . .
Or the ones that . . .
"Survive to eat" . . .
WHICH ONE ARE YOU???
Well, let's break it down to better understand that theory . . .
You see . . . the people that . . . "eat to survive" . . . are the ones that "choose their food wisely" . . .
They understand the "value" of that food . . .
And that "food" . . . is the essential "fuel" for the body's functions . . . providing "energy" and "nutrients" for physical and mental well-being!!!
With this all leading to . . . "conscious" healthier food choices for long-term health!!!
These are the people that make "food" a functional "necessity" . . .
Like the example I gave you yesterday about putting the "right" gas in our vehicle.
This in turn . . . maintains life and vitality!
Whereas . . . the people that . . . "survive to eat" . . . are the ones that "choose poorly" . . .
They tend to "eat" for "pleasure" . . .
Where "eating" now becomes a "hobby" . . . "enjoyment" . . . a form of entertainment . . . or even an "emotional crutch" . . .
These people use "food" to cope with stress, boredom . . . or as a "reward"!!!
And they "focus" on TASTE . . . rather than . . . NUTRITION!
So, in a nutshell my friends . . .
Food and Eating . . . become a "CHOICE IN MINDSET" . . .
Now . . . ask yourself this question . . .
Is food for YOU . . . a biological necessity to keep you alive and healthy . . . thus (eating to survive)???
Or . . .
Does the pursuit of enjoyment of food become your life's purpose . . . thus (surviving to eat)???
Now . . . I'm "not" saying either way is right or wrong for YOU. . . because we're all the "master" of our own "domain" . . .
And we "all" have our own opinion, thoughts, justifications and theories . . .
All I'm saying . . . is in realty . . . the outcome of our health . . . has to do with the saying . . .
"We are, what we eat"!!!
