For those who have been here a while, what is the one fitness or food change you've permanently made in your life? Mine has been that since 2013, I eat one large raw carrot a day. If I don't, I can feel it.

    Exercise. I never did it before, now I love it. Even in high school we had to do at least 1 push up and 1 pull up to pass gym class. I barely did it then, but could do them in my sleep now.

    I don't actually think I have made a permanent change. I do something different than before for a while, then do something even more different.

    Exercising regularly and cutting back on the alcohol - I still eat whatever I want in moderation. :)

    Difficult answer in my case, I detected cycles in my journey of weigth loss.

    At the begining I tried more salads, curiously I reduce them drastically without impact in my progress. After 4 months I replace them (as side orders) by alternatives like souercrout and "pico de gallo"

    One deifinite change is whole breads most of the time. No more white bread (except for fast food :smile: )

    One trend I am noticing is that my diet is becoming more "paleo" so reducing a lot the rice and pasta.

    I haven't really changed a whole lot, besides portion sizes, but I have made the permanent switch from regular soda, to diet soda.

    Not to demonize food. There is no bad food, only food that has gone bad.

    I gave up fruit juice at meal times as it supposedly had too much sugar. It hasn't made me lose weight though and I do think it might have stopped me eating a pudding so I might go back to it.

    I also, like you, eat a carrot or half a day. I think it's a good appetite suppressant, high in fiber and all that munching calms me down.
