Re: 10 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO IMPROVE YOUR DIET
I'm doing pretty good on most of the list, but those artificial sweeteners are hard for me to break! I am oding better, but I have splenda in my coffee every morning. I have stevia, but it tastes different. I need to just stop because I know how bad it is!
LOL..I just realized that I should probably cut out the coffee too! I have just one cup, almost every morning. My DH got me hooked. I need to just stick to tea!

Re: 10 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO IMPROVE YOUR DIET
This is terrific advice. One thing I would add is choose animal products (if you eat animal products) that are fed in a way that is natural for them.
ex. grass fed beef and eggs from vegetarian-fed hens

But I agree that it'd be better to avoid mainstream chickens who are fed....well....chicken.

Re: 10 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO IMPROVE YOUR DIET
I agree..you want free range chickens...and chickens aren't vegetarians..they eat bugs and worms and other stuff like that.

For sweetening my coffee, I use stevia(Stevita brand). For my tea, I use honey. And I also use molasses or honey when making bread. But I'm not opposed to using sugar in that because the yeast eats a lot/most of that up. I personally avoid all the artificial sweeteners like the plague, altho dh likes to use Nutra-sweet or Splenda in his coffee.

Re: 10 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO IMPROVE YOUR DIET
I buy Rapadura which is sugar that hasn't been processed so it still has the minerals in it and some nutritional value. I use Steva in a few things....

As far as I know, I think it's comparable to "Rapadura", which Cobluegirl mentioned.

Re: 10 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO IMPROVE YOUR DIET
Great advice mama, we do a pretty good job of following most, if not all of that. Somehow I seem to be gaining weight amid all of that (and I usually can't gain weight to save my life). Do you have any advice for eating out? I think that may be what is tripping me up. I really hate cooking so it is so easy for us to just say "let's eat out". Suggestions?
Oh, and I would second the stevia suggestion. Love that stuff! |
