Kat,
You know in all seriousness.. We are the ones who have to be smart about eating right I can't help but think of how Ray has to eat.. so it's always good to to be watchful..we can't always depend on honesty in the food industry! Going out to eat is fun and if we chooe wisely we can enjoy good food AND good nutrition!! I really do wish I could eat anything I want!!  I think just being aware of what's in stuff is a start.. I always try to improve, maybe someday I'll get there!!  :D
Kathy ;)

Kat:

Yea, thinking about what Ray is having to do, that is what got me to really start and look at what I was eating and researching about nutrition.  With a lot of reading and studying and Dr. Setger's basic instructions as a basic guide, I'm learning and implementing some changes.  Really only with someone like Dr. Setger's knowledge have I felt confident to really start making some big changes.  Not that I am strictly going by what just he says, but it gives me the basics of what I feel is a sound way to go.  Got a long way to go, but you have to start somewhere  ;)

Forgive me if I sound sanctimonious - I don't mean to be - but what is it with you American's and all this fast food?? Surely the healthiest foods are fresh veg and fresh fruit and skinless chicken and brown rice etc etc!

I wait to be put in my place!! ;D

Kat:

No myms, you are right.  The thing is these fast food places are every where, even in small towns now.  It is so easy just to stop and grab something on the go and it can be cheap too.  You don't even have to get out of the car, just drive through.  I think we kind of got hooked on it before they started putting the numbers on what's in that stuff.  Now we have kids that grew up eating it, so it's just a way of life to them.  I think it is mainly just convenience though, but that is no excuse.

For a good laugh, I showed this to my physical therapist/personal trainer/nutritionist and she "flipped out"!  ;D
Some of those "healthy" foods are not at all healthy. She thinks like Dr. Steger; and has a huge challenge ahead of her in getting this "steak & tater" kid's way of thinking changed.  ::)
Getting healthy is as easy as getting saved!  ;)
