Having been brought up in a family that
seemingly experienced as much pasta and Italian bread passing through
our oral cavities as simple air, it should be of no surprise that a
majority of my relatives (women included) might have made the short
list for the Falcon’s front line. Amazingly, many of these “stout”
loved ones lived well into their 90’s….after experiencing one or two
coronary incidents which usually led to some behavior modifying diet and
other positive lifestyle changes.
While I am in favor of portion
control as I gain in years, (yes, it is tough!), we all go through those
periods when it seems like meals are the constant “go to” plan when
gathering with friends. Who am I kidding? It’s always been the “go to”
plan! I am trying to consume one-two glasses of water before I go into
attack mode; this does cut the calorie volume a good bit if I can ignore
the bread and olive oil! Increased blood sugar has become extremely
epidemic in our society and children are often victims way too early!
When I came upon this article, I felt that it was well worth sharing.
The supplement that is highlighted in the article may help those whose
discipline is not quite as strong as it needs to be. Our diet and
exercise routines do not need to be complicated, but they can evolve to
that stage if we allow ourselves to reach a crisis state. Some wise
person once said, “eat to live, don’t live to eat.” I’m willing to bet
that the person was not Italian!
