About this Blog

I have a history of challenging myself to eat more disciplined than "normal". I've spent years as a vegetarian, pescatarian... and variations of those. Each modification in my diet has been spurred by some desire to live better. Not all of my choices have been the best for me, but I'm learning.

Most recently, due to a triglyceride test that returned high, I'm trying a sugar free, white starch free diet. I am giving up a lot of foods that I love (like cheesy fries). I'm finding replacements for some of the foods I love. I'm learning that sugar is in just about everything that we eat!... even most deli meats.

I thought that it might be interesting for me and others if I document what I eat. Maybe someone with more knowledge about eating sugar-free will comment on my diet log to teach me something... or maybe, I can help someone else.

Here is one site that I'm using to help me formulate my diet plan.

I can't promise to keep this log up to date with each meal, but I want to try. For a while my meals my seem very repetitive... but hopefully as I progress you will see more variety.
