Give your body a real treat

lovinmomma

My FIL in a very heavy man and I always bug him about nutrition and introduce him to new foods, the other day in the grocery store i saw he had bacon AND a kit kat bar. I said something and he said to me "I've had a long day I need this choclate its my treat"... as he stands there 300lb at 5'8 at 65 years old... Honestly I know we have hard days but adding ten pounds to you isnt going to make you feel better, eat an apple insted and give your body a real treat

Darn. I thought you had come up with a new KitKat + Bacon treat.

Tease.

Unless he's going to wrap the chocolate in bacon, I don't see the harm in having one chocolate bar and bacon can be good for you if you don't eat the entire amount you bought in one sitting.


Just my two cents.....

I understand what you mean. Once I started focusing on my health I began to notice all the unhealthy choices my loved ones were making and it can be very disheartening. But once someone has reached that age, it's up to them to decide to make healthier choices or not to, you can't do it for him!

Set the example. That's all you can do.

Any food is fine once in a while in moderation. ANY food.

But if every time you have a hard day you eat extra, you're setting yourself up to get fat and feel bad. It's not a healthy habit and it is way too easy to do. We all do it sometimes.
