So glad you said this Thinker

I don't think it's the "good" food that's made any of us too heavy...I know it isn't for me.

I can eat delicious meals and, as long as I don't bury things in cream sauce and butter regularly, that was never my problem.

What made me gain weight was quantity...and the crappy food I ate...donuts, chips, candy, sodas.

I fully intend to keep eating filet mignon, and fresh steamed asparagus with a little butter, and baked potato (although I've discovered plain greek yogurt is a fabulous replacement for sour cream) ...and I will probably periodically go out to eat my favorite mexican food....or bake a batch of cookies.

What I'm not doing anymore is eating fast food, drinking soda, eating potato chips, deep fried stuff, etc. But, let's face it, that was never the really "good" stuff anyway!
