[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 741160, member: 18958"] SWOT. How do you know you don't have inflammation. You experience a lot of stress with BART and with your birth family, which gratefully has decreased. Stress causes inflammation. I think your plan sounds healthy, especially with a lot of vegetables and low glycemic fruits, like Elsi is eating. I think you will easily lose the 10 lbs by wedding day. I think your approach is sane and healthy. The exercise in particular. But there are some of us who have more serious health issues that would possibly be served by being more stringent. Not radical, but stringent, in ways that seem to be documented by science. I do not think that attention to diet is obsessive. I think it is conscious. Problems can come at you for being unconscious and indifferent. I think that this is the idea behind the thread. Nobody is saying be a nut. I am hearing everybody as saying: [I]what are some small and easy ways I can eat better to be healthier. [/I] I am reading a core message here from virtually everybody about what helps health and well-being generally (and I added a couple at the end, that I forgot): No refined carbs. No processed foods. (In general.) Trying not to overeat. Low glycemic vegetables and fruits. (Fewer if any potatoes, less if any rice, way less pasta.) Reduced grains, or if eaten, focusing on barley, rye and oats in small amounts. Focus on vegetables and lower glycemic fruits. Very little juice, if any. Reduced or eliminated dairy. Except for some Yogurt, and a little cheese, like Feta. If health permits. Eating nuts and seeds. Healthy proteins, and eating oily fish. But reduced amounts of protein. We don't need so much. Good fats. Exercise that your body tolerates, that is phased into. Staying away from 24 hour grazing and giving one's body a rest, metabolically by establishing eating windows. Avoiding nighttime eating. Allowing some breaks and flexibility to ensure happiness and compliance. Occasional dark chocolate. Occasional wine, particularly red wine. I see nothing radical, extreme or dangerous about eating or living like this. My grandmother who died in 1976 ate like this. I think this is how people in many cultures really lived until modernity. This is as far as I know the Mediterranean Diet, very similar to the diet the people eat in Crete and parts of Italy where they live to 115 years old. [/QUOTE]
