I would like to think that a majority of my days I live with the code of: eating small balanced meals that make my body function and my mind happy. I am able to operate with integrity when I am focused and reminded about why I am operating under that code. (Being lighter feels better than Baskin Robbins tastes) ... When I am true to myself and focused on what I am doing I am aware of the fact I feel lighter and therefore better. I just need to work on being more consistent when it comes to honoring my code.  I think figuring out my code is a work in progress.

I used to burn so many calories swimming and playing water polo that eating healthy meant I could have three huge plates a day, snacks in between followed by one of my Dad's famous peanut butter milkshakes! My plates would consist of pastas, good rustic bread, cheese and loads of veggies. Since I am no longer working out nearly 7hours a day I have had to learn a new type of healthy eating and it is just recently that I have become conscious of this. I feel have always been a "healthy eater" meaning I have always had balanced meals that consisted of a good balance between carbs, protein and fat. But, now healthy eating to me is eating less carbs and more protein and just LESS of everything. For example I don't need a plate of bread, salad, pasta and steak. I just need salad and steak. Salad and Steak give me the energy I need and leave me feeling lighter...  Now only if I could think like this every meal.
