Icky, Yucky But Maybe

Why can I not get to a place others have gotten to? Feeling close but not truly completely converted. The knowledge of what is good or bad for consumption is there. The feeling much better when following healthy eating has proven itself. It is just the whole hearted feeling that item "X" is not healthy therefore it has been branded gross and inedible. Exhibit A: the French Fries at today's lunch. They have been passed on over the weeks. Today was not even a bad day. But they were there and for whatever reason today they were not passed on. Did not even feel guilty at the time. I can not even say they tasted terrible, that would have helped. It will not kill me that they were consumed but it is just the fact that the place of just never wanting them (or several other item Xs) seems elusive. Would love to be there. Would love to have this problem with say... beans or wheat grass.

Maybe some day.

Marie-just read your post and wanted to say, I don't feel like that either. I do eat healthy and exercise, but there are days when I stray off the path, and don't feel guilty. There is no majic in this, you arm yourself with the best knowledge about foods and do your best. It's all about knowing a better way to prepare ingredients. Nothing wrong with potatoes. Shake up your eating plan and try new things. My DD ate a piece of my Galaxy Farms Veggie "cheese", cause it looked like american...she didn't know the difference. I was waiting for the ewww! Didn't happen...she is 7...who woulda thunk it.
