I really don't like "diets". Instead of a diet I am trying to change my eating habits to eat more healthy food. For instance staying away from the cakes, donuts, cookies and candy. Not that I feel I can NEVER have some. After all a treat once in a while is ok. But eating candy every day after dinner? Not so good.
I am eating less red meat, usually in smaller portions and then eating lots of vegetables. Lots of fruit too but especially lots of veggies. So instead of a large piece of meat and afew veggies, I now eat a small piece of meat and a lot of veggies. I like veggies so it is no hardship.
