Nutrition: Overview 3 - About MeThe analogy was a bit of a rant I know but I feel I need to explain that my life is in no way dictated by what I eat. I have absolutely no idea how many calories in total I consume on a day to day basis. I neither know nor care. How can I have such a cavalier attitude you wonder? Surely I'm being less than honest! How can I look the way I do and not be intimately aware of my caloric intake? Well the truth is that I have long since reached the place where the caloric value of the foods I consume are not significant. This is because I know the vast majority of what I consume is nutritious in nature. I do not even know how much I weigh – honestly. I can take a guess but weight is one of he most over rated measurements I can think of. I know I feel good. I know I look good (not wanting to sound obnoxious here – bear with me). I have a saying that goes like this... “I don't do what I do to look like this. I look like this because of what I do” It really is that simple. No more, no less. The truth is my body doesn't have a say in it! Neither does yours. I make the decisions and my body has no choice in the matter! Simple. I can't blame my body if I make choices that lead to me looking and feeling in ways that depress and/or stress me out. The two links below will navigate to windows where I go into detail on what I eat and drink. Over the last 6 months or so (June 2010), I have become progressively more and more focused on healthy eating coupled with a regular regimin of physical actvity such as walking (yes walking!), cycling and gym based activities (which I will go into detail on later).
