"Magic" Diet - your health, your life, your choice

Well guess what? There is no magic diet, but that does not change the fact that everyone is still looking for it. Everyone wants the "easy" fix, the short way out. And this is a whole other issue in and of itself. As far as diets and nutritional habits go, there are some simple steps to taking control of this area of your life. First of all you have to realize that it is a control issue. Who is in control, you or food? That is a serious question that you must honestly answer. ANd just let me make something real clear to you here, if you are not in control of food, then absolutely yes, food is in control of you. Now if you admit this, but still choose to not do anything about it then hey that is totally fine. Like I always say, "your health, your life, your choice." Just make sure you do take responsibility for your actions, and lack of willingness to change. On the other hand if you do realize that you are letting food control you and you want to get control then just to make this realization is a big step. Next you simply (notice simple usually does not mean easy) have to choose to take control of food by first making that declaration with your words. Also it will be important to continually say and think to yourself that "hey, I am in control of food. I will not let food control me. I may not be perfect, but I will make positive strides by making better and better choices." Of course there is more to this but that would have to be covered later. Next the simplest thing you can do as far as what to eat, what not to eat is this: JUST DO WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW YOU SHOULD BE DOING. Don't worry about learning a whole bunch of new stuff, complex diets, counting calories, etc. Just apply in your daily routine a few of the good nutritional habits that you already know you should be doing. Gradually add in 1 or 2 new ones each week and just choose to make it your life now. There is more but to apply these couple of things could really change your health, your life. Get on it dog'on it.
