Is the REALLY Junk Food Worth It?

CRAVINGS, it happens to all of us. Sometimes they're so bad that we feel as though we HAVE TO give in or else we won't be able to survive, or else the world around us will collapse. And more often that I should, I, like others, give in. I choose my stomach over the voices in my brain telling me to constrain. I tell myself that I'll make up for it by eating healthy the rest of the day and by getting a longer workout in, but is it really worth it? Is the REALLY Junk Food Worth It? Well, lets see..

SO IN CONCLUSION, the sad truth is, the junk food and cravings we have are usually not worth it! Instead, opt for the healthier option AND do the exercise for a fitter lifestyle. If all else fails, then you can always try to stick to one of my favorite mottos "out of sight, out of mind!" and avoid these painfully delicious foods as a whole.

Stay strong everyone & aim for the Fit Flavor of your life!
