A man died yesterday at McDonald's. He just finished his Big Mac and had to use the restroom. Died in the restroom from a massive heart attack. I don't think that the one meal was his invitation to death, however, over time this could have been a direct result.

Why do we continue to eat the foods that aren't good for us? Why do people teach us everything is okay in moderation? Moderation, diet, exercise, health history, family history and so on.

Regardless of what lead this man to his death, his family is left behind to pick up the pieces. His young daughter will be left with the memory of being with her father in his last moments of life. His family will have to move forward without him.

In the moment, I can justify eating anything. I can tell you how many miles I will need to burn off that Oreo or how long I will row for that handful of jelly beans. But, it all adds up. At what cost do we continue eating it?!
