Good to know about the BMI. It can be pretty depressing, too. At least right now. I'm in the 30's, at least that is what the pinch test showed.
Italian foods. I do try to eat wheat pasta with a red sauce. My favorite Italian food is lasagna and I haven't found any restaurants that use wheat pasta. I guess it still isn't good with all that cheese.
Ok, foods I will eat...
Green beans, but I only like them with a butter or a butter substitute. Right now I am using Promise. Sometimes I will use Smart Balance. I've never had fresh green beans...just out of the can. Bad, I know.
Garlic - like it in pot roast, bread, steaks, and probably other things.
Leafy greens - salads
Love Romaine, Green Leaf, Red Leaf, like red cabage...in my salads. The only dressing I like is Catalina. So, I get either Light or Fat Free.
Fruits - Apples, strawberries, bananas, pineapple, oranges , peaches, nectarines, plums, cherries (jarred marashino (sp)), mango....I think that is about it.
Dairy - cheese. I'm not really into milk. When I have cereal I will use 1% or 2% milk.
I love cereal of just about any kind. I currently have honey nut cherrios and total. My favorite is Cookie Crisp. lol
Meats -
Beef...ground beef is 94/6 or 93/7 (whichever I can find),
Lean steaks for the most part, but I love Ribeyes and T-bones.
Chicken - baked, rotis., grilled, fried (I know I can't have this anymore)
Pork - Not too into pork, but I do like butterfly pork chops on the grill.
Nuts - not into those. I do like peanut butter, though. I try to get natty pb, but have purchased smart choice or something like that.
I know it's not much.
I am just sooooo picky. Is there hope?
