Effects Of Eating Sweets

Decent Essays
I was often irritated by people because they were constantly reminding me that I was on a diet. I couldn’t stand how they acted as though I forgot! Whenever I was following a diet, if I had a taste for something sweet from time to time--I ate it because I felt like it! I did it because I didn’t there was a crime in Me doing so. It seemed like every time I wanted something sweet, somebody would always come around, at the wrong time.

I didn’t see them playing with some of their friends in the back of the parking lot. I finished eating, just in time to look up and see them running towards the van. As they were running towards me, I put all the food trash in the bag, balled it up and jammed it underneath my seat. I didn’t get to spray the van before they made it to the door. Bobby opened the door, for them to put their book bags in. As he was opening the door, I only got to spray one shot of Lysol. I didn’t want the smell of the food to be as strong because I knew that they were going to be asking questions. Bobby said, “What’s that smell?” I asked, “What smell?” He responded, “It smells like food or something.” I told him, “Somebody must be cooking outside or something.” He said, “Oh.” He shrugged his shoulders, and went back to playing with Brandan and their friends. I felt kinda bad because that was the first time that I’d ever lied to any of my children. That’s just how desperately wanting to have a dessert made me. I’d resulted to lying to the

    Health-conscious Americans today count calories, fat, carbs, protein, and nearly every other nutritional category there is. In “Sweet Tooth Gone Bad: Why 22 Teaspoons of Sugar per Day Is Risky,” author Allison Aubrey explains why people should focus their concern on another nutrient: added sugar. Aubrey opens the article by presenting a new study done on added sugar, which claims that those who eat an excess of added sugar are twice as likely to die from heart disease than those who limited their sugar intakes. She unpacks this study by pointing out existing health regulations and proposing solutions to this potentially catastrophic problem.

    We often hear the phrases, “food is fuel” and “you are what you eat” whether it is coming from a doctor or peers and family. Although it may seem unbelievable, it is true, how we balance the amount and what type of foods we eat in our daily lives can benefit or adversely affect our bodies. So what makes people choose to eat in a certain manner and put specific foods in their bodies? Well, through examining my own relationship with food I have discovered that dietary restrictions, parents’ cultural and personal preferences associated with specific foods can cause a person to lean favorably towards or turn them off from consuming foods, thereby molding an eating pattern. First and foremost, the number one aspect that has affected my food…

    This is not a good mindset to have, but it is hard to change when I am not physically seeing a change in my body when I eat unhealthy foods. I have always been a huge snacker, but I think I have gotten a lot better about it just after learning more about my body and how certain foods can affect me on the inside and how they might affect me down the road. Since heart disease and cancer are pretty big in my family, my parents and my sister and I have decided as a family that we are going to start eating healthier. This was a lot easier to do while I was at home with my family and my mom was cooking meals for us every night, but I find it so much harder and almost impossible while I am at school and making my own decisions. Between the fact that I am a busy college student, I don’t have the money to buy healthy foods, and I rely on the cafeteria for many of my meals, it becomes a real challenge to stick with this diet that I started at home with my family.…

It was so hard to keep eating the same amount of food with the same amount of healthy nutrients because of my ever changing schedule.…
