I switched from eating white bread, flour, rice etc. to eating only whole wheat, sugar free bread, whole wheat flour, and brown rice. I think that has helped me a lot. My blood sugar is usually under 90 in the mornings.

Thank you for sharing! Your advice was very helpful.

I agree. i finally got the junky stuff out of my system, I feel like if I "cheat" I might get hooked on the stuff again. Plus, I feel a whole lot better now that I'm not eating it.

You are definitely right. I like fruit, but I try to limit them because of the sugar. I don't really like most vegetables, but I am trying to work them in slowly. I read an article that said most of the time we don't like tastes when they are new to use, but if you keep eating that food regularly you will start to like it.…

Cool Beans, thanks everybody for the great ideas and resources.

Man, it really stinks what they pass off as food these days. Just to save money I guess. It just enforces the fact that we really need to the label on everything we buy now.

Hi, If you click on Quick Tools underneath the meal you want to remember a box will pop-up, Remember Meal is one of the options in there.

What a great idea! I am signing up now.

Definitely True. Being healthy and feeling good and confident about the way you look is going to be way better any food that I have ever tasted for sure!

Hi, today is my second day on myfitnesspal, it is great isn't it? The greasy, sugary, bad for you stuff is more easier to find than the healthy stuff. For me I had to make the decision that I love myself more than I love all the bad foods to there. Its made it much easier to say no to all the foods that were slowly eating…
