Eat This Much, Web Site

Today, I'd like to introduce you to a new web site I found that can help you select food to fit your particular needs. It's called EatThisMuch.com.

What I like about it, aside from the fact that it has a wide array of choices, both commercially made and homemade, is that it drills down so that if you're watching your sodium, cholesterol, sugar, etc, it's listed in a drop down menu (far right).

Greg's been watching his sugar so I've been paying careful attention to how much sugar are in ingredients before I use them.

Not only does the web site have nutrition information of individual ingredients, but also entire meals, including restaurant food. I especially like the search function (far left) so I don't have to scroll so much.

Try it out and let me know if you found it useful.

We've been watching our sugar and fat for a few months now. We recently had a checkup and both my sugar and cholesterol went down. It was never high to begin with, but the change in our diet brought it down even lower. I was very happy to see that with only minor changes in our diet we could make a difference.

Greg needs a little more stringent care with his intake, but he too did better.

Do you watch your diet for anything in particular? I am a glutton for carbs, so I'm mindful of my sugar even though it's in the safe range. It would be easy to OD on sweet rolls and chips. :)
