I've decided to make major changes to my diet and other aspects of my life, the biggest is consumption of sugar. I get plenty in foods with none added so I'm cutting out anything with added sugar which is nearly all processed foods. Sugar is linked not only to diabetes and obesity , but dementia and even Alzheimers disease as well as many forms of cancers. I'm getting too old to keep rolling the dice and believe me folks..You ARE getting old whether you like it or not..
Anyway, take a looksee at

Secrets of Sugar
Kind of scary the shit industries keep hidden from the public..

One of the first things I have done these last few months is cut out regular and diet pop, white breads, sugary snacks & desserts. Now when I get out of here hopefully next week or the following week, I may have to celebrate with a regular Mt. Dew with my homemade smoked ribs for one of my first meals lol. 

But going forward generally speaking, much of my diet will be of more fresh produce, home cooked meats & fish, etc. Im going to try to stay away from deli processed meats, or anytthing processed in general. That doesnt mean I wont go out for dinner to get unhealthy stuff once a week or two, but just general mindset change on. Lol after literally having near a million dropped in me to keep me going, im not going to muck it up because of eating crap.
