Decisions Decisions

So many people stress out about what they should eat at home, at a party, at a restaurant, on a date. "Should I get an appetizer, dessert, eat the birthday cake, drink the beer?" "should I exercise, take my vitamins, go to bed earlier?" Often the stress that is created over the decision is more damaging to our health than the decision itself, even if it's a healthy one. And, if the decision is to choose a less healthy option, often guilt ensues...then more stress...then more unhealthy decisions....then more guilt...then.....what a life! So, we should just not stress about it and eat whatever we want, right?...sort of. If we make the decision, clearly to be healthy, strong and fit, then what we will want will be to make the healthiest choice available to us. The decision is made before the choice presents itself. It's not "do I eat this cookie?"...it's "will this cookie support my goals?" Then, you are not depriving yourself, you are giving to yourself.
