Make sure it's not popped, puffed, flaked, flour, shredded or instant ... it's refined... avoid it. It enters into the body too rapidly... the body gets a hypoglycemia response and it's stored as fat.
If it comes in a box or a can... stay away from it.
Choose organic when possible.
Wash well.. very well when it's not... get rid of the toxins that are sprayed on our foods.
Water... avoid soft plastic bottles...it leaches into the water.
Get plenty of fresh air.
Trying to improve my health one day at a time. Doing a ketogenic diet, low carb diet. Losing weight over the age of 50 is not easy or fun but we'll all be healthier when we get there!

"Inside some of us is a thin person struggling to get out, but they can usually be sedated with a few pieces of chocolate cake." ! Anonymous
That used to be me... but I am now committing to losing it... no longer can the thin person be sedated... in fact, once she arrives she might be a force to be reckoned with after years in the pantry!
It is offensive to me that many people think overweight people do nothing but eat one goodie and another... I literally have nothing to eat in my refrigerator except eggs. I don't have cupboards full of bon bons... I don't order jumbo pizzas (or any for that matter) and eat them by myself. I don't hoard cookies. I don't eat breakfast, and often don't eat dinner... yet my thin friends eat constantly.
This started out to be my journal to record my journey on Medi Weight Loss Clinic's program - I lost 50 pounds on that program in 4 months... it all came back rapidly when I tried to eat "normal" - as in eating fruits and more carbs...the Dr told me it would but I thought I had it figured out. He told me I probably couldn't go over 1,400 calories a day... surely not! He was right.

Now I'm doing it all over again......without joining Medi Weight Loss - I know what to do without spending over $100 a week.
