Again it's the sugar that is killing me. I must must must trim down the refined sugar and add in some fruit. I certainly will not be posting all my food all the time but just wanted to take a look at it. At the very least I can clearly see where I am going wrong and therefore can make major improvements to the eating. What I am really missing since the fall weather kicked in is fruit. I generally speaking don't like fruit. I love berries and had them in smoothies all summer long. I love baked fruits too but those are often found in baked good. I need a warm comfort food that involves fruit and is low cal......hmmmmmm I am on the hunt now..
Cheers!
