New Start

Why is it so expensive to eat healthy? A salad runs what about seven or eight dollars tops. I can't imagine paying that kind of money a day, I don't know about most people but paying that much for a good salad every day will/and has sent me back to McDonald's many of a day.

I've even tried bmol- bringing my own lunch....... Going to the market to get fruits, and vegetable's are no laughing matter either. I purchased a few vegetables and some fruits not many and a few snacks just for one day, it was just as much/if not more than what I pay for a good salad a day.

On the flip side, you can purchase a burger, fries and a drink for less than $5.00 dollars that is with tax included. The difference is to many of those cheap meals will clog up the arteries give you heartburn, and make you more hungry.

So my question still remains why is eating healthy so expensive and unhealthy foods are so inexpensive. If America is fighting against obesity and childhood obesity why in the hell are prices for vegetables and fruit so damn high. Organic foods are good for you too I hear, but have you seen the organic prices. Well maybe for some paying that much for a salad,is not an issue some folks are very dedicated. I personally can see how easy it is to become obese.

However, in order to stay healthy and have a low BMI-body mass index, I have to be willing to change my lifestyle,put the time in, execrise and have consistentency. This is just day three check back with me on day 20. Hopefully I will have something to rave about....
