From Miss K, Age 18

I just finished eatting Chinese food with my dad. Big mistake. Why is it that it's so hard to just say "NO" to something I know is so horrible for my body? I know how it damages the spirit after looking in the mirror and seeing someone I don't like. I know how emotionally degrading it is to feel like there's a different person underneith everything. Even though I know all the facts, I know what I should be putting into my body...I just find it so hard to commit to with my parents. Hopefully next year at college I'll be able to keep with a healthy lifestyle, not a life swimming in grease and cholesterol. I control what I put into my mouth. My body is a machine, I will tune it correctly with nutritious and healthful foods. I will not cave to the all-american diet full of preservatives, and that lacks vitamins and nutrients. I will stay strong because this is MY body, not my parents! :) That felt good to get out. Sorry if I took a lot of space. I'm just mad at myself for caving in to cravings. Hello, MSG's :(
