    After eating clean and exercising regularly for the past few months do I feel any better? Not really. I look better, that's for sure, but I feel the same. Is it worth it to miss out on takeaways, beer and bacon? Yeah, I've grown accustomed to my diet now, and my main goal now that I'm 40 this year is to be healthy enough to enjoy my retirement. I don't want to work all my life then die or be too unhealthy to live a little once I get the opportunity, that scares me! There's more to life then working.

    I'm not going to live like a fucking monk though, I will have food treats, a beer with the lads and I will have time away from exercising. Health is no good if it makes you miserable. I figure 5 days out of 7 I need to look after myself well.

      Editing … So long as you don't get so hedonistic on the other two days that you negate everything else. People giving themselves breaks because "they've earned it" is a good way for them to not get much benefit from trying. But yes I agree your good health has to be good for something, some greater agency or opportunity, or what's the point? Just lasting long enough so you can do what you want is everything, and not just referring to some work/retirement sense either.

      Editing … I had half a 12 inch pizza, 1 beer and 1 glass of red wine last night. That's my weekly treat done, and to be honest the pizza just made me more hungry. I'm going to have to experiment with different treats to find something reasonable calorie wise that fills me up.
