I'm single and I work full time. Yes, granted I don't have any other responsibility other than myself and my career, it's hard for me find the time to cook for myself.
When I had a boyfriend, or even living with my brother, I did manage to cook because there was a purpose. I had someone else to enjoy my food but these days it's easier and cheaper to just to pick up dinner/lunch.
Is this mentality because I value myself less than my boyfriend/ or brother/ or guest who I like to cook for? Why is it so much harder to cook for oneself?
I've been pretty good about working out and staying active. Now I want to focus on eating healthy. And one thing I know is that you can not eat healthy if you are eathing out everyday or even every other day. You need to know exactly what you are putting into your mouth. Yes it is easier, but changing your lifestyle doesn't come easy, right...
It's about loving yourself more than boyfriends/ brother/ friends and cooking a goumet meal for youself everyday because you deserve it. It's about taking care and control of what you putting into your body.
I know it's difficult and it's probably difficult for everyone out there who's not single and have kids/ husband/ wife/ etc.... but it's really is down to this one question?
Would you really feed your child all the crap you are putting into your mouth?
And your answer is probably NO.
So, why are you still eating all the crappy food?

Make it a priority to cook for yourself - you're on the right track! This is a great time to explore recipes! Good luck!
That is a great question that has me thinking. If I'm alone I eat something quick and usually not very tasty. I'm going to rethink that!
