This Sparked Me!

Living as a Diabetic has made me aware of my Limitations----specially in Food.I find that by Tracking my entirFood on the Recipe Calculator I'm learning to eat healthier while also enjoying it in moderation.If eating a heavy Meal---at home or out---I track every Ingredient on the Menu in the Recipe Calculator.I find out the total Calories of the entire Meal this way---this helps me to decide the things to eat or to avoid and the Portion sizes too!!This way I can have my Cake and eat it too!!

    I've gotten used to doing this too. It really helps in making this a *lifestyle change* and not a diet - especially living in a joint family with picky eaters emoticon
