Definitely trying to reduce. I like your suggestion though -- moderation is probably more important than complete elimination (at least at first). I figure my likelihood of sticking to it would be better if I didn't try to change everything about myself all at once! I'm trying to experiment with new veggies in my diet,…

I agree, I'm finding that even smaller things like a sweet tea have so many more calories than I ever would have imagined. Besides that, fast food is overall pretty bad for you on its own. I think it's mostly the convenience that brought me to it. I'm trying to eliminate that. My partner and I are making dinners more…

I've never been good about drinking water. Even on my best days I can only manage 2-3 glasses. I'll try, though!
