Just made my first successful steak dinner tonight - blackened (intentional). I don't eat much beef, but it really depends who you ask. Some say the traditional high-carb routine they recommend is deadly, some say the opposite. I do know when I did a low-carb diet during a period of willpower (rare) i lost nearly forty pounds in six weeks and felt great. Except for beer, rice, potatoes that diet is easy to keep.
So you successfully set your diet up, even though you hate to eat, and live to be 100.
Or, you enjoy life, eat what you want, maybe don't live so long.
Case #1 fails to consider you might get nailed by a UPS truck and die tomorrow.
Question is not what'll kill you. It's whether you experienced and enjoyed life's benefits as much as you possibly could. (To me) In some ways it is a far worse tragedy to survive one hundred ten years and live none. Like was said above - we all are on the edge of death. Could be tomorrow, next week, next month, or years away.
In my short amount of wisdom, carpe diem. Live every day as much as possible as if it were your last, without dwelling on the fact it might be your last. It is better to live on your feet than die on your knees.
If you enjoy a good steak, enjoy it. Some of my best meals have been steaks in Paris, and the UK, during the whole mad cow scare.
Maybe I'll change. Who knows? You have but one life to live, though, and regret is one thing you do not want on your deathbed.
