I’m always preaching that life is about balance and too short to live on salad alone.
However, I do also think that often we lose sight of the bigger picture and the “life’s too short-eat the cake” mantra slips in all too easily
The reality is that if you find yourself saying this too often then yes there is a significant chance your life may indeed be short(er)
Now before you all come at me with you knew someone who was taken too young and also someone who was 25 stone and chain smoked and lived to see you 100-yes there will always be anomalies but the reality is that bad diet leads to bad health and bad health can either reduce your life or significantly reduce the quality of your life.
I don’t know what the future holds but I know the choices I make now will impact me jn 20 years. And in 20 years I want to be a sprightly 62 year old, travelling the world and (potentially) looking after my grandchildren. I don’t want to be confined to a chair waiting a hip replacement.
One cake, one missed workout won’t make that happen. But repeatedly choosing the cake has a good chance of helping that along
The choice is yours 🍰
