Good for you! It is one of the hardest things to change a lifestyle. I too am trying to be more conscious of what I eat, how much exercise I get etc. My goal is to get to a place where things become habit rather than what they are now, which is a forced decision to make better choices. In short, I am manually making better choices until they become second nature. Sometimes I am surprised by how much I am enjoying my new lifestyle. Yesterday I found the most wonderful salad at Wendy's - Apple Pecan grilled chicken salad with blue cheese crumbles and a pomegranite viniagarette. It was scrumptious!
