A classic song..
This is my song for food, counting calories and weighting portions..
As some of you know, I love food. I can go anywhere and eat without limitations. I am always willing to try new stuff.
One of the most positive events of this experience has been a growing awareness of the potential and diversity of food. And how much I am allowed to fit in my cal budget daily!
Filling the food diary and knowing the cost in cal and nutrients of the food we regularly eat allows us to be more selective in portions and type of food we consume.
Knowing your food will also allow to eat EVERYTHING in moderation. Like a pizza? A burger? Go ahead..
Knowing your food will give the freedom you need to eat anything, not just the usual boring diet plan that is waiting for you to drop it for a craving.
And finally, knowing your food will take to a great journey, like it has taken me of wonderful discoveries of great dishes from all over the world that.. Surprise! I can cook myself very simply!
So.. Get to know it!

Very true friend!!! This journey has been an incredible educational journey for me as well. I have learned moderation through the education and still enjoy all the regular foods that cross my path on a daily basis.0

I have not given up the foods I love, I have changed how I eat them.
