It's funny. It's been the opposite for me. Since I started hanging out on the forum, I've spent more time thinking about what I am cooking and what goes into it. In the past, eating was basically grazing while I worked - mostly c#$p to fill me up. Now I actually think about the proteins and what will work with it from a veg and starch. Given our life style (always on the go) I didn't get a chance to make a lot of food - and many times had to balance activities with cooking or fast food. I made a decision to change that. I couldn't change the activities, so I had to change how I made meals. So, a lot of planning and thought have to be at work here. It is a pita to get it right sometimes, but the net result are some very healthy and delicious meals. In the past 8 months I've lost over 60 pounds and am on track to get to my goal in the next few months. It's a great journey and you all have been a super bunch of helpers. Thank you!
