Pressed for time, we often end up compromising the most essential part of our self. It is our health and in all the rush, we end up sacrificing that which is always essential. My dad fails to understand how I could be so busy that I do not even have time to look into what it is I am eating. He remembers whether he had had the carbohydrates and requires protein etc. and here I am trying hard to remember if I even had a meal, let alone what components of diet I ate. I think it is not so much me but the way the things around me are.

I just do not have any part of my brain wiling to contribute to this aspect of my life since I guess it doesn’t pay. It has taken me a lot of reflection time to reach the conclusion that I need to consciously make an effort towards improving my condition in this area. With my dad’s encouragement, I spent some time with my parents to learn a few tips and tricks on this part. My mother’s home cooked spaghetti sauce recipe kept me going on my path for long after I had turned things around for myself.
