If you are listening to advertisers and taking your nutritional advice from the TV then I’d suggest it’s highly likely that you are eating crap. Here is where a little uncommonsense is required. Think about it. If Kellogg’s tells you that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and that cereal is your best choice, do they have a vested interest in you believing them? Watch this video. Unbiased? I think not.

Of course breakfast is an important meal but you won’t die if you don’t eat it…you’ll just feel sub-par all day.

Here’s the startling truth. If you are fat, you are so because you eat crap and because you eat too much of it. Sure, there are some medical issues involved but don’t get all caught up in excuses if you are still eating Tim Tams and Corn Flakes and drinking Coke.

On the flip-side, if you’re thin it’s also because you’re eating crap or you’re eating well but hardly enough. The result is the same. Fat or thin, you are not optimal and you are paying the price for poor nutritional choices.

Here’s an idea! Stop look outside yourself and start looking in. I bet you’ll find that you can make some changes that immediately improve your health and shortly thereafter your physique.

Just so you know this isn’t a case of do as I say not as I do, here’s what I’m having for breakfast today: a 3 egg omelette with a little bit of melted cheese, a cup of decaf tea, an apple and some almonds.
