Just how much do you love your body?
This is serious because you need your body to get around,
to enjoy life and to attract members of the opposite sex.
And it you don't love your body, why should anyone else?
So these questions have been devised to help you ascertain
just how much you really love and care about your body:
Q. How many McDonalds do you eat at a sitting?
A Quarter Pounder with cheese contains 510 calories. A
medium portion of French Fries adds another 380 calories,
total 890 calories. For a healthy diet you should be aiming
to consume around 2,000 calories a day. So one 7 oz burger
with 4 oz of fries is using up nearly half of your daily
allowance. Makes you think, doesn't it.
Q. How many portions of fruit and vegetables do you eat a
day?
Fruit and veggies are your best source of essential
vitamins and minerals. If you're not eating yours it's like
NOT putting good fuel in your car, your body won't run as
well as it could.
Q. How much chocolate do you eat a day?
Chocolate facts: dark chocolate is good for you, hurray -
but only in limited quantities. 2 ounces of dark chocolate
up to 3 times a week is good for you.
Q. How much alcohol do you drink a day?
A glass of wine probably does you good. Medical opinion
seems to be divided on whether it should be red of white,
so have whatever you like. But more than one glass and
you're starting to damage your body cells, particularly
your brain cells, and that's not good.
Q. Do you drink water, when you're thirsty?
When you're thirsty your body needs water and not energy.
So save your calories that you would get from a soda for
your food. Water gives your skin moisture, so you don't get
dry skin and (gasp) deep wrinkles.
Q. Do you eat too little?
When you eat below 1200 kcal per day you body goes into
hunger mode because you're not giving it enough energy.
This causes it to try to conserve energy, which actually
makes it harder for you to lose weight. Your body's not
like a machine; you can't just decrease calorific intake
and expect to lose weight; a body needs a balanced diet to
lose weight. Most women need to eat around 1500-1800 kcal
per day.
If you're not feeding your body to the best of your
knowledge and ability you're telling it you don't love it.
If you don't love your body, how long do you expect the
relationship to last?
For a longer life, look after your body.
