This Monday challenge couldn’t come at a better time for me.

The week before Haven everything was such a rushed blur that quick fast food seemed like the only option if we wanted food in our tummies.  Then I may or may not have overindulged the whole four days at the conference.  Hint…I totally did.

Now it’s time to quit cold turkey, and maybe eat more fresh turkey.

Did you know that Large, Value, and Supersized meals are sometimes triple the recommended daily allowance?  Every time we grab a quick and easy meal in the drive thru to save a couple of minutes in the day, we are potentially taking years off our life.  Minutes saved for years lost?  No thanks.

The fast food industry wrangles in over $120 billion every year.  Do you know what I could do with all that money?  Heck, I’d probably buy the ocean.  Or at least build an underground Atlantis where I could live out my childhood dreams of morphing into a mermaid.  Holler.

Now they are working on an artificial burger.  How delish does that sound?  About as tasty as a vinegar smoothie.  The saddest part is 30% of children’s meals consist of fast food.  I know we are all busy, trust me I know, but we have to make a change.

So today, give it up.  Make a meal.  Then make two tomorrow.  Soon you will be making all your meals.  If you make too many, you can send them our way.  Lord knows I will be burning meals left and right.

Do you eat a lot of fast food?
