Guest guest Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 I was a latecomer to the whole cheese thread, but I wanted to toss this out there. I always ate " healthily. " I ate from all parts of the food pyramid in the whole form and even the nutritionist I saw to help with getting a handle on my attitudes about food said to me " eat a snickers once in awhile! " . My problem was portion size, not health. Recently I had a health crisis. My doctor told me I had to be on a special diet. Not for weight loss, but to maintain health. My friends call it the wonder bread diet. No whole grains. No nuts or beans with a couple of exceptions. Only a few veggies are ok. No berries. No coffee or chocolate. I can't have beets but I can have vanilla ice cream. Since the physical punishment for not following the program are fairly extreme, it's not hard to do. I shared this because what is " healthy " is relative. And some people may need to watch their cheese due to cholesterol. And some people may not -- some people aren't affected by dietary cholesterol at all. Some may have to avoid salt (also part of my stupid diet) and some may be fine. You just have to be kind to yourself an find your own way and that's all you can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
