  I try to eat like a little kid.  Just ... neater.[/DIV]
 So just pizza and gummi worms? just kidding!

  My kid actually loves his veggies too. He craves broccoli, asparagus and green peas??!!!!!

Some Chick

I literally go through days where lightly steamed broccholi is all I want/crave.  I'll eat a huge pile of it and then steam some more.  

  Other days, all I want is protein.

P.C.

 You know, if we were more like children, we would be healthier.  You see little kids refusing to eat something one day, and pigging out on certain food groups on others.  Some days they eat next to nothing, other days they're a bottomless pit.  They are more in tune with their bodies because they haven't been filled with all of the nutritional "education" we have.

  Perfectly said !  

  Now that we AREN'T little children, I know that when my body is telling me to eat something, that is not just about desire....I believe the 'signals' let me know what my body is lacking.  Need, over want.  

  Mmmmmm....perfectly cooked broccoli.[/DIV]

Yes, cooked just till it's hot enough to melt some butter but still crunchy.

  I'm getting hungry.

P.C.

Now that I'm drooling, I think I'll head to the market for some fresh veggies.

Have a great day SomeChick.....thanks for making my lunch decision....lol.

   Yes.....a dreamy amount of butter.....cracked pepper and a hint o salt !!!!

Funny I don't have a sweet tooth. I have to force myself to eat sweets. Would rather eat something else.

Most ppl who claim they don't actually have a sweet tooth usually crave sweets in some other forms such fruits, pop... etc.

  Simple refined starch converts to sugar very easily. We don't think about items like rice, white bread etc... but they do convert to sugar quite easily.

  I agree with moderation when it comes to eating. Use your common sense and listen to your body when it comes to food.

Me too, Sportsdude....no sugar on my strawberries for me, please.

The only fruit I don't like is cantelope, papaya and mango.  Ptewwwii.  Tastes like soap.  ( yes....I went through a couple of mouth-washings as a kid)

Ooooh, I love mangoes. They're my weakness.

  I do adore chocolate dipped strawberries though....................... yummy. *sigh*

  So I look at my diet plan and you know how many blueberries I can take in one sitting? 15.

Maybe I'll try it for a few of months some day (if my wife allows me).

At least I do one thing that's been shown to prevent the onset of diabetes: drink massive amounts of coffee.
