My Diet; How I like to eat!

I am not now nor have I ever been an “expert”, a licensed nutritionist, or a certification anything! I know what works for me and how I like to eat. I use common sense and personal results as a guide. (there are also some really good books to read. I’ll mention those later!) This is not a meal plan, just use of common sense in everyday eating, and a nudge in the right direction.
So…
Prepare your kitchen. If you can toss out all the junk and crap, do so! Chips? Gone! Soda? Gone! Anything not on the following diet you can’t store or give away? Gone!
If you live with some one that wont support your healthy eating and refuses to ditch the junk, section off their space and your space. Ask them for a favor to at least keep their food hidden and/our out of sight out of mind.

*HFCS – High Fructose Corn Syrup
*”Regular” Potatoes, those heavy white ones are starchy and bad, though tasty.. I know, I’m Irish. :’(
*Fruit: All those “Natural” and “Healthy” sugars are still sugars. Remember that one gram of sugar is still sugar one carb. so YES those are better than granulated and WAY better than HFCS but we still need to eat them in small amounts :)
