You know what? When I was in school I went crazy and ate utter junk - we're talking like 5 Mars bars a day. Why? Because I could. Because the junk was there and because I could buy it [with parent's money], I was a teenager and I didn't know any better. Yeah sure, healthy food existed, but that was for "other" people.
Then the inevitable thing happened: I got fat and it took many years to regain control of my weight, even after I graduated.
But you know what? Now I eat healthily, look after my body and indulge in a Mars *monthly* insted of *daily*.
I'm a firm believer that you *need* to make mistakes. That's the only way I learnt to take care of myself; when my own body ballooned. When you're a teenager you're a snot-nosed git and knucklehead.
Leasons learned the hard way are the ones most savoured. Sometimes you just have to be wrong before you can be right.
