One of my friends has horrible eating habits, well I guess in retrospect compared to my health nut self. She drinks soda, eats little debbies, lives off subway (which is pretty healthy, but not everyday), chocolate, and I'm pretty sure she eats cookies for breakfast- gosh, that's just GROSS!!! I love her to death, but I just don't understand how people function off all this CRAP!! She's not overweight at all, but her siblings are, so you think she would realize that she better be a little more health conscious...anyways, my point is that it's a great accomplishment to be around people like this and not even have the slightest urge to eat like that anymore!!! I value my health and think that everyone should as well!! Eating clean is the way to GO!! :)

    Ummm...
    So, if I understand your post, you wish you could eat crap and not gain weight too, right? :-) I can honestly say that once upon a time I could eat all that crap too and not gain weight. Now, I think, "Those were the days!"

    I know I should be more alturistic but I wish my carrot sticks tasted more like chocolate cake!

    Interesting. Lol. I guess some people have different vices. I smoke some and also probably drink too much coffee/Diet Coke but overall, I eat pretty healthy. Lately, I haven't been able to eat any fried foods - they make me ill!

    I loooove my chocolate, but I'm not so sure I could eat Little Debbie's and cookies all day.

    No, quite the opposite. I don't want to eat like her. She can keep all the junk to herself and have sugar crashes. I'll stick with my healthy food that makes me feel good!! and 20 yrs from now, I'll still be fitting into my skinny jeans when she will a fatty!! Lol.

    She might have been raised in a home where that's the norm. If her siblings are overweight, they likely all have bad eating habits. I was the only obese one in my family but that doesnt mean my siblings ate any better than I did, they just didnt gain weight.

    That said, it's tough to watch someone eat garbage all day, but the only thing you can do IMO is lead by example.
