A few years ago - while still a student, I was at an imaginary point; delicious yes, can eat there. Because I was not able to eat in that place. Understandably my quota is still distock parents. Once eating there for two people may be finished my meal a week alone. So, I try most there once a year or under five times a year. That, too, also nabung or money more by side work while studying.
I used to think. How delicious life can eat anything we want. Can eat anything we like. I did not think about anything else from the effects of the food back then. I just think, if there is money to buy it, then the pleasure will be real.
Finally, after college and work. I can buy foods that I can only have in my mind. Like college students who just got off and worked and made their own money. I try the food I can afford. After all, I think, why do I work if I still taste nahan?
Until, the last few months my body likes less healthy. Therefore, stomach acid is rising. Probably because of fatigue and stress as well. I even got to the hospital several times late last year. Got to apologize to my parents over the phone --- I was overly anxious at the time. I told my Mama, forgive me if my age is not long anymore. Until that was so bad.
From that incident, I realized one thing; life is not to eat well. But live to eat enough and fit the body. Because every food that goes into the body, it will affect our body. If the food is good, then fine our body. If the food is healthy then the health is our body. On the contrary. I began to believe, no matter what sickness a person suffers, one of the causes is what food he eats.
Principle; eat whatever is important halal. I started to change in myself. Now, eat healthy and halal for my body. I began to reduce the foods I liked. I do not consume any of the beverages that I used to eat almost every day (chocolate and coffee at fast food stalls). I started this month also replacing the drink with pure juices; no sugar and no milk. It's kind of weird sometimes, but yes I think it's better.
I understand more and more that what our body needs is not the most delicious food. However, foods that fit the needs of the body. Later, I began to dare to refuse the food that I might have dreamed of eating every day. Because I understand. The person who has to take care of my body is myself.
