The Organic Food Craze

organicI’ll never forget the “Fat Free Craze”.  Do you remember that?  What a joke.  You had every junk food junky running out and stuffing their face with fat free this and fat free that.  Oh it doesn’t matter they’d say, ” look fat free twinkies, how yummy!!!”

Ya, instead of getting healthier they were rollin down the street with cheeks like a blow fish and a jelly belly that slapped the ground everytime they tried to run off their last meal.

So, here we are with the “Organic Craze”. 

Those who know me would say that I only eat clean, all natural foods and have since I’ve been about 12 years old.  No preservatives, no chemicals, nothing foreign just real ingredients.  Yet, does that mean just because the label says organic that gives me right to stuff my face and think I’d never put on weight.  Obviously not!!

Don’t get sucked up into the all natural, organic advertising bonanza.  If you’re trying to lose weight; watch your calories and work your ass off.  That’s how you’ll get in shape fast.  Not by sucking down acai juice, pills and cup cakes.

Do yourself a favor….skip the bull.  Go to basics: lean proteins, organic veggies, fruits and greens.  Sprinkle it with some complex carbs and SWEAT! Lift some weights and hit a punching bag.  Just move.

Summary: Go organic but don’t stuff your face.
