Monday motivation - healthy lifestyle or daily doctor visits you choose

From My heart & observations today,  although some my be offended this is not to point fingers but to make us all aware of the consequences of our actions.

"As American's we may live in a free Country but we are walking around in an unhealthy bondage"

I sat in the orthopedic office today for 2 or more hours watching over 15-20 individuals come through, my heart aches for the obvious physical pain that some are going through, BUT I have to add nothing treated in this office is life threatening and that is sad!!! The majority were over weight by double digits and all I could think was "these people need help" they NEED nutritional advice (I actually said Shakeology) not knee & hip replacements. Loosing weight is the #1 key to ease joint paint so it saddens me to see therapy happen, time & money spent and honesty nothing will ever get better, because the insides are screaming and therefore although it's not visible the real treatment should include nutrition and healthy choices. This SAD diet most Americans eat are killing them and they continue to do it.

Why don't people choose healthier options? because it's time consuming? Costly? Boring? NO!!! because we are a truly lazy society and we depend on others to care for our health and wellness instead of standing up for ourselves and making wise choices.
I've had 3 friends loose fathers due to health issues this month that's 3 too many, I have friends trying desperately to change "genetically" messed up diets and trying to save older generations while changing the younger generations to think differently. There are things in your DNA and genetics that CAN be changed IF you want to, for example high cholesterol, high blood pressure, high lipids, diabetes 2 and so much more.

It starts with YOU and ME saying enough is enough stop handing out excuses for poor health and take responsibility within your own household, if you can spread your healthy influence to others great but it's not your responsibility to care of everyone.
 But it is our responsibility to speak up, by first and foremost letting our food companies know we don't need mass production of junk, fake, processed, pollutant & pesticide filled foods. Start with your own kitchen and see how it spreads.  You can't always change the generations  before us. It we most certainly can influence the generations behind us.

Enjoy your life & enjoy your family  the healthy way!
