No, Smiley, you can feel very good about eating those things! We go to KFC fairly often when we are down town on the weekend to attend church. I was getting a leg and a thigh, but lately I have been getting two thighs!
I have always eaten fairly healthy. We grew up in our family on the farm, and we raised and grew a lot of what we ate. When my Dad developed Cardiovascular touble, clogging of his heart and arteries with build up, he got really health conscious, and boy did we eat healthy after than. He started walking as well, but it is too late for him as the damage had already been done. That is the way those diseases are; they call them chronic, they spend years creeping up on you, and then all of a sudden there they are, and for most people it is too late to improve, as it was with my Dad. Then Carol developed diabetes, high blood pressure, and a few other health issues, so we ate much less sugar after that!
A medical doctor where I was getting a flight medical, so I could pilot the airplanes, told me that if I ate right I didn't need all those vitamins I was taking, so I went home, put them in the closet, and I think they are still in a box dating back to 1986! I prided myself on eating right and exercising so that I did not need to take vitamins! When I saw the eye doctor, last year he saw the beginnings of cateracts, so I am trying to protect my eyes from ultravilent radiation now! When I saw him this year he saw signs of macular degeneration! Since it is only in the beginning stages he told me if I would take an eye vitamin and mineral some of the damage may be repaired, and I should suffer no further damage! He also told me that now the medical studies of the American Medical Association are supporting taking a multivitamin once a day for every adult person. So much for eating right, exercising, and not needing to take vitamins! I am now taking vitamins for my eyes, and the multivitamin! A medical doctor told me to stop taking the vitamins in 1986, and now in 2013 another medical doctor told me to take the vitamin! He described where the vitamins were on the store shelf in Walmart, and it turns out they are a multivitamin for women over 50 years old! I am over 50 years old, but I can guarantee you that I am no woman! I love the women, but I don't want to be one, I just want one! How about you?
