What does eating healthy look like?

Thank you so much for your encouragement!!

I want to not just count calories, I also want to make calories count. I actually eat a whole lot less prepackaged food or fast food in favor of more homecooked meals, not just to eat healthier, but because I find I can often make a tastier and more filling alternative for the same calorie count.

Agreed @rankinsect !

Tonight it looked like peanut butter toast as a late evening snack. Because I had already hit my protein macro, was within my calorie goal and had some discretionary calories to spare.

Discovering that eating within the caloric goal isn't that hard, and you tend to make better choices when you realize that many things are simply "empty" calories with ZERO benefit. That Captain D's was great today, but it's a super simple salad for dinner because of it.
