True, Trep. I think I like the sound of your phrase better. We could also call it "Temptation Renovation". :-D Haha! True, Trep. I think I like the sound of your phrase better.

We're kind of a mixture- we eat out some and cook at home some, with a mixture of organic/fresh and processed stuff. One thing that has helped a lot is just forcing ourselves to read the calories/nutritionals on anything that we're looking at. Sobering- and helpful when trying to control portions. I know we can't do this cold-turkey, but I do think these are the right first steps for us. I agree, Trop.

We don't even have a microwave oven. It's hard to break long term habits. In our case, we'd have never done it without baby steps. Baby steps all the way.
