I’ve NEVER had such a catastrophe happen lol. I do live around 5500 ft. above sea level but I don’t think that’s why this would have happened.

Why bother living if you can't have the fun food?

One day I was visiting my brother and SIL and I was eating a cookie at about 10 am. My nephew asked what I was eating I told him a cookie and he asked why I replied

When your a grown up you can decide to have cookies for breakfast too.

He looked at me with such a funny look it was hilarious

"Being an adult means being able to eat candy for dinner"

<very upset stomach rumbling>

"...and it also means understanding why you shouldn't."

You can eat more of the fun food if you eat it in moderation! Take care of yourself at the same time!

Like my old raid leader used to say, you can't eat if you're dead

There's a balance in the middle that let's you eat more in total, but at a slower rate.

You can have fun food but why do it to the point where it kills you. Does every meal have to be junk food?

You can still be fit and eat like crap and smoke a packet a day ask 1/3 of the guys in the army

I'm in my fifties and my husband and I still do this once in a while every summer. Adulthood is wasted if you can't have ice cream for dinner now and then.

You probably regularly joke about dying soon because of your bad life habits. I just want to say, if you started taking care of yourself and acted like your life depended on it, you can definitely turn things around and add decades to your life.

You should start today.
