[quote=Anonymous]Well, do you like those foods? Eating healthy for me is easy because I like a lot of foods other people don't, like German whole grain pumpernickel and barley grains. I never liked fatty meats, so lean isn't a problem, and try to restrain my cheese urges (that's harder). I cook for myself, because my family is very white bread, despite my best efforts. My husband cooks for himself and the kids, chicken nuggets and pizza and so forth. Your best bet is to do your research about healthy grains, buy small packets of them to try at home (tip - you might like them better if you overcook them relative to the directions at first), and then stick with the ones you find tasty. Then you build around that, with lean protein, animal (including fish) and legumes. Add in veggies of your choice and some ripe fruit for dessert. But I think the foundation is taking your time to find a rotation of healthy grains you can live with. Limit the refined pasta, bread and rice.[/quote]
