Eating healthy is not all it's cracked up to be. Why would I want to live longer if I am going to be miserable the rest of my life? The other day my heart doctor told me I need to lower my cholesterol by laying off carbs and dairy products. I have already given up drinking and cussing, why should I give up my other pleasures. I gave up drinking because I can't afford it and cussing because I am intelligent enough to think of more words. I will sooner or later have to give up smoking because I can't afford it much longer but I will not give up my eating pleasures just to live a couple of years longer.
