In that case, I agree completely, and it's good to see your clarification. It didn't read that way in your original posting, and its context. I support your viewpoint fully in that case, and it makes me feel like hiding in shame at the general condition of the human race when I see how ready so many folk are to lead the lifestyle you describe. My frustration is equally felt against those who make their fortune out of the cynical marketing that lies at the heart of this inexorable plummet into a killer lifestyle. For what it's worth, knowing this and comparing their lifestyle with your own is particularly frustrating on the day when you're diagnosed with Diabetes, and the medics say to you "you'll have to eat healthy, you'll have to exercise and you'll have to try to lose weight" and they go into the detail and you think "but I already prefer healthy food, prefer healthy recreation and keep my food intake down to highly moderate proportion - what else can I do to improve?". But I'm not looking for sympathy, only trying to bring some balance to the debate. Enjoy your healthier lifestyle, I agree it is definitely preferable, and I hope it does prevent you from becoming "one of us".
