Healthy Eating / Healthy Living

[Morrigoon]

As far as goals, I have a few myself. I'm not trying to be a model, or even look good in a swimsuit, but I'd like to be healthier.

Mostly, I want to get sick less often with my stomach issues. So that means less grease, less soda.

As an aside, I'm also trying to reduce heavily processed foods and eat more "real" food, stuff that's closer to its source. So real butter, more "fresh" bread and less preservative-filled bread, more items that still retain their original shape (chicken comes to mind).

One major exception to that is Splenda, which I'm actually trying to sub in once in a while as a way to reduce my sugar intake. I'm not comfortable with subbing it in 100% (see above paragraph), but I find that if I put 3 sugars in a coffee, I can easily put in 2 sugars and one Splenda, reducing my sugar by 1/3, and still not feel like I'm bombarding myself with over-processed food.
