Portion size, choosing the right things to eat are the key to a healthy diet. Exercise is just as important also. Good comment Meg. Olestra...that was the stuff in chips that made you shit your pants. I was trying to remember the name of it. And we (Americans) just eat too much food anyway.

I was stuck on the fat free craze for a while. Fat Free Yogurt (fake and missing the protein AND the helpful bacteria that you eat yogurt for) Chips- that make you have horrible stomach issues Cookies- that didn't fill you up you ate so many of them you got a stomach ache and ate too many No meat- as in no chicken, no beef, no fish and no healthy replacement In an effort to diet, I didn't lose weight until I started running so much which made this diet unsustainable. It showed me how the body NEEDS so many of these things. It isn't about cutting out fat and/or all sugar or depriving yourself of things that actually fill you up and leave you satisfied...it is about moderation and a healthy attitude to what your body needs and craves to fuel your lifestyle. That is fantastic.
