Hello Everyone!

I just joined yesterday. I am hoping that this site will help me be more conscious of what and how much I eat. My biggest problem is that I am a horribly picky eater (i.e. only vegetables I even remotely like are potatoes and steamed broccoli and carrots). I am trying to force myself to take vitamins to make up for my terrible nutrition habits.

    It's nice to see another picky eater. Vegies are not my strong suit. I found that it not so much that I don't like vegies it's how they are prepared that makes the difference. For an example Green and yellow zucchini cooked Andante in a pan with a tsp of teriyaki is great. Asparagus with Worcestershire sauce is good. Spaghetti squash with a little tomato sauce is awesome. I guess what I'm saying don't give up on vegies. Keep on trying.

    This might just force me to learn to cook! Thanks for the suggestions.

    The easiest way to "hide" vegetables is to blend them into a smoothie with some fruit or juice them. I found great advice and recipes at www.sproutman.com. I even grow my own sprouts for my lunch time smoothies. Mung bean sprouts with an apple or peach and some whey powder and I have lunch or post-workout snack. A few chugs and it's gone. No endless salad chewing for me! Good luck.
