What Happens One Hour After Eating a Big Mac

Is It Worth It? 

This is a fantastic graphic that lays it all on the line.  No matter what you order, no matter what fast food chain you frequent, it all affects you negatively.  

Beth Warren, author of Living a Real Life With Real Food in respons to our Infographic: "While the infographic is surprising, it paints a fairly accurate picture. It’s not one ingredient that is a concern, but a lot of different reasons to take caution when eating a Big Mac,” she says." 

What do you guys think of this?  Personally I gave up fast food chains when I was 22.  I had joined Weight Watchers to lose those pesky college pounds.  What I learned there is that one combo meal had more fat content and sodium content than what I should be taking in for an entire day!! It just wasn't worth it.  To the point, it always left me hungry and licking the salt off the greasy wax paper the burgers came in.  

If you can't give it up permanently, cut down your trips until you're going so infrequently that you realize your belly hurts after you eat from eating these belly bombers.  

Do it for you.  

Do it for your health.

In this moment I want to L.I.V.E.!!!! . The only way to get where I want to go is to trust and believe. #FaithOverFear every time everyday. .

It's time to rock Chandelier and Let my Spirit Soar!!! . #Every1Matters #EveryDayisAGift #ShareYourCize #CizeItUp #Cize #live #LifeByDesign #SurviveAndThrive #fuckCancer #fitLife

You may not have accomplished all your goals. You may hate that it's "only this " or "only that". Don't look at how far you have to go. Look at all that you have accomplished. . Most of all stop seeking validation from a square piece of digitally crafted bullshit that doesn't have a clue of what you're worth or just how are you work. . Everyday I hear "I was fine until I stepped on the scale this morning." I want to cry every time I hear that. It's amazing that a number, a volatile, always changing number can set the tone of our entire day. . Measure your goals in smaller accomplishments. What can you do today that you couldn't yesterday? Just how far have you come from last year? What obstacles did you overcome? What progress have you made that can't be summed up in pounds? There's SO many answers to those questions. . Look at all the good you've done. Sure there's stuff you haven't yet but you're getting there. Own it. Love it. Be it. Wear it - wear the confidence of knowing you are awesome, amazing, beautiful and not a victim to what a scale can make you imagine. . Be confident and let is SHINE ✨✨✨✨ That's more beautiful than anything. Your heart and soul will show in your smile and when you smile? The world smiles back at you 💖
