Mind Game: Rethink the Fried Chicken

The whole train cart reeked of fried chicken. Directly across from me a large women chomped on her Popeye's drumstick. My first reaction...damn, that smells good. However on second thought it was truly repulsive. She seemed to mindlessly intake the fried chicken like a zombie. Perhaps she had a bad day or could only afford Popeyes, but it kept me thinking about how psychological eating choices are. 

Making constant healthy eating choices is definitely a habit I have worked towards and struggle to maintain. Lately I've noticed that when I wake up in the morning and pop open my fridge I actually demonstrate conscience thought. Yes, my eyes are still heavy with tiredness but I truly ponder about what foods are going to respect my body. What foods are going to deliver antioxidants, keep me full but not bloated, boost up my metabolism and energy levels? 

I think this is  habit is worthy for everyone to try. Even if you just start at breakfast. Pause and evaluate what foods are going to really be beneficial for your health.
