This is another sign of getting old. Nobody has to tell me to eat fruits and vegetables anymore. I eat 5+ servings of fruits and vegetables every day. Also, I workout. And I still worry about getting sick and dying too early. Haha..
This is my typical day's diet.
- Morning: Juice (2 apples, 3 potatoes, 4 carrots, some fruits).
- Breakfast & snack (at work): Fruits - 2 serving size.
- Lunch: I stopped eating fast food.
- Dinner: Balanced with vegetables.
- Night (sometimes): 1 serving of fruit.

My take on eating good:
- If you eat bad - you feel satisfied for that moment. And you feel bad for the rest of your life. You have a better chance of getting sick and die. And you look bad.
- If you eat good - Food is still enjoyable. I can still enjoy bad food in moderate amount. I feel good for the rest of my life. And I look better.
- Food is addiction just like tobacco. - Food industry is putting stuff that people cannot resist. Think about that the next time when you eat insane amount of fat, salt, or sugar. If I open a can of Pringles, I usually finish the whole can in a day or two. I know I must stop, but I keep eating. Why is that? But if you understand the fact that industry is designing food so you eat more, then you have a better chance of fighting that craving.
I went out on a routine grocery shopping on Sunday night. Ralphs had some good stuff.
8 corns, 3 peaches, 3 nectarines, 3 oranges, 3 bananas, & 2 bags of grapes. Total Price: $8.56. All from Ralphs
