Current Events > Why do some people refuse to eat healthy at all?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I don't know many ppl who refuse it outright. Those that I have witnessed were visually unhealthy, walking time bombs.

Personally, I eat for fuel - about 40-60 healthy all week. Time is the most valuable thing & I simply don't love food prepping - I like a simple grilled chicken & cold veggies. I've stopped eating sugar, though I will still drink it via iced teas or whatever. I mostly eat protein & light carbs. I've never been a dessert person, so that's a plus.
I work on my feet, 6 days a week, & get rid of nonsense calories that way. I still enjoy a beer after work, I'm no saint.

I think that's kind of their point. Poor choices aren't necessarily going to make you die sooner (or at least not appreciably so), but they can have an impact on your quality of life while you are still alive.

The point of that post was more about taking that matter into your own hands, or my own hands, specifically. So the quality of life doesnt really matter, on my end.

Unfortunately, I've seen the quality-of-life older people live and how they go when they haven't taken care of themselves. Saying we're all going to die someday anyways is discounting a lot of time affected by your lifestyle choices leading up to that.

Nor to mention how bad the quality of your life will be early. It's concerning the people who are my age (35) who struggle to walk in even a few miles when out or are already dealing with chronic body pain. Some dismiss it as "getting older" but this shouldn't be happening in your 30s already.
