Are you living on a line of credit?

I was sitting in a financial class a while back and this concept hit me like a ton of bricks. Each day we have a reserve amount of calories. We can spend them any way we choose but when those calories are gone we automatically switch over to a kind of "credit" system (to be paid back later). If we live on this credit everyday, "bankruptcy" will come because of it.

To those that say they are too busy to log their food, I say, "you cannot afford to not log it, you might be living on borrowed health". We have to look at the bank statement at some point. When you are 10 pounds overweight you have charged 35,000 calories to your "health account". Most of us would be appalled at $35,000 in debt and that kind of money would take many of us years to pay back. Here is where the good news comes in. To reduce 35,000 calories we only need maybe 10 weeks!

If you are one that is low on time, take a step back and just put it on the possibility list for a while. Let the idea swirl around in your head. Open up to the idea and the desire will follow. Remember this is a revolution in thinking - that is the goal! You can do this!!
