    1) Most sauces are evil
    2) eat more protein
    3) lean meats
    4) no sodas.. at all, diet included!

    Don't try to do everything at once. Try to make one big change a week (or whatever goal works for you). One week I cut out pop, the next I upped my veggies. Each week I tweaked things, now I'm working on lowering carbs and upping protein. One other thing that is helping me is having a little treat every day. My favourite at the moment is skinny cow truffle Popsicles.. Yum!
