Do you eat fruits and veggies every day? When is the last time you've consumed a piece of fruit or a serving of vegetables? Sometimes it can be hard to remember.

I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable, but I only ask these questions, because I ask them to myself. And, because I care for you. I really wish things like pizza, doughnuts, bread, and cheese helped keep my ticker in tip-top shape, but that's not how God made us. What is kind of ironic is that when you start eating good foods, you begin to crave them. But when you start eating bad foods, you can start to crave those, too.

One of my staples is an apple a day. I've started to add in carrots when I can. Some may say this is a horse diet. Perhaps I shall add hay. (kidding!!) I have a tough time adding in lettuce without accompanying it with some ranch or blue cheese or some other rich food to wash it down.

I have this dream that if I was really skinny, then I would need to eat cupcakes and doughnuts. I don't think that is a proper view of nutrition or diet. Skinny people that can seem to eat everything bad only perpetuate this improper thinking. But my secret thoughts are that those skinny people have horrible cholesterol readings, or their metabolism will slow down one day and they'll join the rest of America's reality.

But the real question is do I consume food or does it consume me? Hmmm. Deep thoughts for the weekend.
