These Texas Cities Are the Unhealthiest and Here’s Why

(KNUE-FM) Working out and trying to stay fit in Texas might be more difficult than other places in the country, the reason I say that is because we have so many delicious food options.

We are fortunate but it’s so difficult to avoid bad foods when they are so readily available.

Even with lots of Texans wanting to live a healthier life, it’s difficult when you see so many fast-food options or things covered with cheese or gravy.

Growing up I was a big guy, to be honest I didn’t know how to deal with my feelings so I would overeat to deal with things.

It was unhealthy but I started to realize that I was really doing damage to myself, so I have really worked hard to lose over 100 pounds since graduating high school.

It’s all about consistency, when you don’t want to exercise, do it anyway, you will appreciate that you did it once it’s over.
