Because I love to eat I have always had to be aware that I can pack on some extra lbs so I have had a yo-yo relationship with 20-30 lbs over the years. Not healthy. However, I love food and eat what I want, when I want, work hard, burn off lots of calories and then eat some more. *smirk*

So there you go.

Most of what I eat is very healthy but now and again I indulge in something that is sinfully loaded with enough bad cholesterol and sodium to kill me and I love every minute of it.

Its a trade off. I don't care if I'm model thin and I don't get wrapped up in all of that but I do care if I'm healthy. My trade off is not eating processed foods (or trying not to) eating whole foods, etc. Trust me, I indulge! I just have to find balance and make sure I stay active. It's amazing how much food I eat but when you start breaking it down its healthy and delish! Not everyone knows what to do with whole foods.
