Dieting for Decades: A Sustainable Approach Built to Last a Lifetime (Book) - 11/26/2019 9:18:03 AM
The two biggest culprits, to me, are convenience eating (at home), making very quick meals and snacking with the wrong types of foods because of a harried, hurried lifestyle. And eating out where the menus and portions encourage overeating the wrong types of food.
The keyword should be diet, and not dieting. If we practice a good diet matching our lifestyle, which should be active, even if it means just taking the stair rather than the elevator, then our diet, like mine was and continues, should never require dieting or cutting back in any way. Strangely, my natural stingy, miserly way of saving money for other things other than food always prevented me from eating too much when I was out by not spending money on food that I didn't need anyway.
Still in good health after 55 years of paralysis and 27 years in a wheelchair where exercise is problematic when one's muscles no longer move.
