My body knows what it likes, and I know the level of suffering I will endure if I stray from what works. I do me regardless of what is suggested.
Me too! I eat lots of potatoes and pasta! Easy to fix and my GI tract likes it!
I have to watch my fiber and keep it low, Love roasted veggies but can only eat a few at a time when I could eat the whole pan full!
Can't tolerate beans of any type! I love them, raised on them.
I make more easy simple meals, but tasty!
Never been a sweets eater! I like pound cake and flavored bread loaves. Just a slice! No weight problem!

I was raised on fried everything and with fatback grease in most vegetables. I rarely have anything fried now and definitely don't purchase fatback.

I look for the lower sodium version of foods when possible. Long ago I switched to brown rice and whole wheat pasta. I eat a lot of salad and vegetables in general, but I always have. I should eat fewer carbs, but honestly I don't see that happening. As for buying organic, It just isn't a priority .

I've cut waaaay back on my sugar and salt consumption, and drink mostly water now...
However, I will treat myself to an occasional glass of sweet tea or a ginger ale.
(Oh, and a little Haagen-Dazs)

For those brown rice lovers out there, I really like Lundberg Basmati Brown rice. I think it cooks up great and has a really good taste.

I eat a lot less meat, I kind of lost my taste for it, still cook it for my husband. I could live on beans, love them.

Like a few other posters said, I also have to eat what my digestive system will tolerate. The main thing that's changed though is that I never drink carbonated beverages of any kind anymore. When I stopped those, it made a huge difference.

My default grain is brown rice. I have some at least 5 nights out of 7. I could eat it at every meal, but I do have some control, lol.

Gosh, I pretty much eat the same I did 20 years ago. I never was much of a cook and still am not, so we eat out a lot. However, what I do cook is good, and mostly easy. I'm not one to spend a lot of time planning meals. I just want to eat when I'm hungry and not have to plan and cook it. I generally cook dinner once a week Besides that, it's eaat out, or eat frozen foods or a sandwich or maybe even just a bowl of cereal if my husband is out. Usually, except on the night I cook, my biggest meal is lunch. Then I'll just snack for dinner. Hate going to bed on a full stomach.
My Doctor isn't complaining. In fact, he's quite happy with all my numbers. I do get a good physical once a year, and he says to just keep doing whatever it is I'm doing.
