Snack Ordeal!

I don't have a weight problem, but there are chronic diseases such as heart, vascular, diabetes, blood pressure, etc. in the family. Although I don't suffer from these diseases yet, I am sure that one or more of them will threaten my life in the future!

I'm trying to prevent myself from snacking between meals to make sure this doesn't happen, but I haven't succeeded yet. And this is nothing new, last year and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that...

Years go by, but the result remains the same. I can't help myself, especially when it comes to nighttime snacks. When I'm watching a game, a movie or something in front of the screen, my urge to eat and drink is triggered... and my journey to the kitchen begins. And you can guess what happens next.

As much as I'd like to give up this habit, I haven't yet managed to turn thought into action. And given my comfort with the discrepancy between thought and action, I don't think I'll be able to give it up. Do I really want to? I don't know.

And not just in front of the screen! Even though it is between meals during the day and I am full, I do not turn down treats in the places I visit. Tea or any food cooked on a wood fire in the mountains can be my favorite. I believe that anything cooked over a wood fire is extra delicious, and I am sure that anyone who has had a chance to taste it will understand the difference and think the same as I do.

When it comes to eating, my laziness about many things is no longer valid. Preparing and eating snacks in the morning, at lunchtime or late at night is a great pleasure.

Going back to the beginning, when the chronic illnesses that run in my family start to visit me, my doctor will have to ban some things for me. Perhaps, then my thoughts and actions will be in harmony... and I will open the doors to a healthy life. Will it be too late by then? I'll wait and see!
