Food Inc. vs. Jen Inc.

After watching Food Inc, I was shocked and appalled.  I mean I was inspired, I made instant changes. I was like, that's it.... this is unacceptable...and I will pay more and be inconvenienced to not subject myself to crappy food. I will shop at Farmer's Markets even though it means another stop, I will read labels and ingrediants to avoid things such as High Fructose Corn Syrup.  I will pay more to ensure my steaks were produced from grass fed cows and my chickens were free range and my pork wasn't shot up with antibiotics.  I refuse to by seafood that is farmed raised.  I try to support local, organic farmers.  I will drive farther and pay more for better quality food.  I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I ate at a fast food restaurant since watching that film.

But when it comes to me - losing weight and feeling/looking better, I don't have that same inspiration.  What's up with that?!  Honestly, I'm appalled that the size 30 Guess Jeans I bought less than a year ago don't fit anymore.  That every pair of my jeans cause "muffin top".  That my fat jeans are now tight. But not enough to get to a gym?!  How is it that I will drive 40 minutes out of the way to buy a slab of meat (Mmmmm, beef), but god forbid I leave my desk for 40 mintues and work out durning lunch?? KNOWING that it will make me look/feel better?  Healthier and happier? If I were to put as much time into doing something about my weight, eating habits and lack of activity as I did writing, talking of thinking about them, I'd be a size 4 already!
