    Everything, mainly meaning portions. I right sized my meals.

    And cut out fast food but that part I am still sad about.

    Sugar intake for sure! I completely cut out all soda (I still sneak one every once in awhile) but I cut down from regular pepsi to pepsi max and then completely cut it out. No sugary drinks, very limited on fruit juices.

    alcohol!

    I used to drink 2-3 glasses of wine every day. Now I am lucky to drink that a week. Mainly because I am so active these days my body doesnt need any help to get dehydrated and I love jumping out of bed at 5am for a run or gym class - so dont need the late night or the tired feeling!

    I'm glad some people said sugar...I'm still working on that one. I don't drink soda, and don't eat much processed stuff normally, but I still exceed my sugar limit. Sigh.

    *EDIT * This was supposed to be a quote on the shredded wheat cereal. :)

    I used to love it when it was strawberry on the inside. Now they just have a frosting on the outside one here. I do like the blueberry too though.
