Today I'm trying a revised approach to acquiring my points in a day's time. If I am to get 40 points in a day, and if I was to quit eating after dinner, and if I am to spread the points over 5 times in a day, that works out to 8 points at breakfast, 8 points for a snack, 8 points for lunch, 8 points for another snack and 8 points for dinner. We'll see how that goes.

As I was jogging today, I listened to my favorite podcast, THE RESTAURANT GUYS, and found out about a book by Michael Pollan called IN DEFENSE OF FOOD. It has 12 rules for the omnivore
1. Don't eat anything your grandmother wouldn't recognize as food
2. Avoid foods with ingredients you can't pronounce.
3. Don't eat anything that won't eventually rot.
4. Avoid food products that carry health claims.
5. Shop the peripheries of the grocery store.
6. Buy food somewhere other than the grocery store.
7. Pay more, eat less.
8. Eat a wide diversity of species.
9. Eat food from animals that eat grass.
10. cook if you can and grow some of your own food.
11. Eat meals and only at tables.
12. Eat deliberately, with other people when possible and always with pleasure.
