Aren't most people afraid of the word "diet?" It has become widely known as word used when one is trying to lose weight... but...
Everyone has a "diet." Your diet can be made up of fruits, vegetables, and other foods focusing on the food pyramid, or it can be made up of cheeseburgers and fries.
It is all about choices. Do you grab that donut when you go by the bakery section in the grocery store, or do you by bagels?
When you dine out, do you ask if there are alternatives to "fries?" Some places will allow you to substitute some fruit... or other healthy selections. You can't be afraid to ask! :))
Do you make fried chicken or baked chicken? See? When you put things into perspective and realize that you are the only one making YOUR choices... it makes it just a little bit easier to do what's right for you. :)
Keep smiling,
Bear
