Healthy Eating - a little Self Discipline

Great healthy eating quote I read this week from Jolie Bookspan on the Healthline fitness blog.

"Just as you can't go through red lights every time you just feel like it, or hit someone any time you just feel like it, you don't just eat anything you feel like it at any time. That is unhealthy. Some people say any denial is unhealthy. That is like saying you can just wet your pants when you feel like it. Self-control is cleaner in body and spirit"

So here's one of those weight loss tips that are designed to get your head in the right place to lose weight.

Whenever you get the urge to eat something unhealthy, think about that quote. Are you wetting your pants far too often? You may not suffer public humiliation when you eat too much but the results will (eventually) catch up with you and show in public just as much when you put on more weight than is good for you.

Great tip. Will keep that in mind. What I normally do when I feel an urge to eat something unhealthy I normally think of my kid and say to myself I should lead by example or else he would do the same.
