A higher amount of Americans eat unhealthy than they eat healthy. And there are numerous reasons for that, real and complete bullshit. My dad, for example, is one of those Americans that don't watch their diet at all, and don't seem to care. I don't understand why he won't eat similar to the way in which my mother does. He sits at his computer all day, goes downstairs every two hours and eats whatever he can get his hands on-typically stuff that he 'gets for my brother'. He is literally screwing over his body when he has the healthier foods right next to the ones that please the taste buds better.
As I'm going through my no processed food or artificial sugar journey, I'm trying not to be judgmental to those who choose to eat poorly, but why, when you have the information at your fingertips and the food right down the road. I suppose I must sympathize in some way-it took me 19 years to figure this out. I always knew that I wanted to choose a healthier life for myself, but didn't know where to start. Meeting Wyatt and taking all of these nutrition classes at school has given me a positive start to the rest of my life, I just hope that my behaviors can influence on my family.
