Eat Right ... Here's Why- True Story

So it all became a part of my life when my dad was aroun. He passed away at 83 years old.  No blues here... it's okay. My parents showed me that when you eat right you can live way past your life expectancy.
My dad was diagnosed with skin cancer about 8 years before he passed away. My family had him on a strict diet...
1. Green Vegetables
2. Water
3.Healthy Juices
4. Tons of Chicken
5. Little Beef
6. Tons of fruits (tropical preferred)
7. Whole Grains

Well you get the picture. At one time my dad was a heavy tea drinker. His favorite was Lipton. He would wake me up every morning and have morning tea since I learned to drink out of a cup.

Candy lived in my house, but it would be very limited. It was a hot commodity when it was around. Cake was barely around. It was mostly there on special occassions and birthdays.

Well you get the picture

 My dad was at retirement age and he never retired. Sometimes I would forget that he was a lot older. He used to make me run. He would race me at times. He never showed that he was tired. He lifted pounds of stuff that was like impossible for me. He ate right and he drunk lot of water.
