Choices
Life's all about choices. You make thousands of decisions every single day, most of which you barely even realize. What shoes to wear, what shirt to wear, how much toothpaste to use... the list goes on and on. A lot of them seem inconsequential, then again maybe all of them have consequences. You have to walk between 2700 and 3200 steps, that's over a mile, to burn 100 calories, which is 30 calories less than one of these candies pictured has in it. A pound of fat is 3500 calories. Which means if you eat 27 of these bars, then do nothing, you will gain a pound. If you eat 27 of these and walk 27 miles, you will still gain 1/4 pound. Get it? Probably not, you're thinking, "who the fuck eats 27 of these?" You're right. You're probably not going to sit down and eat 27 of these, but what if you eat 3 per day, every day? Suddenly you're putting on a pound every 9 days, that's 40 pounds a year. I guess I got sidetracked. That's not really the point of this. Here's the fucking point, it's a lot easier to eat 27 of these and gain a pound than it is to go burn 3500 calories and burn it off. It's not just that you're eating 3 tiny candies a day, you're also eating a "healthy" salad that has more fucking calories than a 12 ounce steak (I'm looking at you Texas Roadhouse), it's not just Texas Roadhouse by the way, look at the fucking calories in a salad next time you're at a restaurant, here's a tip, it's the fucking dressing and the bacon and the cheese. Whatever, you ate your 3 candies, had a fucking latte with 500 calories in it, a 1200 calorie salad, an omelet and toast for dinner and all of the sudden you're packing down 3500+ calories a day while doing the least amount of physical activity possible to survive. Life is about the small choices. Life is about saying no. Life happens when you start living for you and telling any and everything that doesn't fit that to fuck off.
