Habit Tweaks: Eating

After a few days in Europe, I’m reminded of how easy it is to eat trash food in the US. The key being how processed everything is1. Choosing to snack on fruits, or have a quick lunch of tomatoes and fresh cheese did help me feel much better — even if I was still eating like a pig on vacation.

Now that we’re back on routine, I need to fine tune my previous eating habits, most of which I was failing. So I’m removing No S Diet, and replacing it with:

  • Prime Ingredients: eat/purchase food with the least ingredients in the label (1, 2, 3, 5, 7)

As usual, don’t read too much into the naming. It just needs to be something something catchy that helps you remember and nudge you towards the desired habit.

I still need to support this with another habit. Likely it will be a formal return to interment fasting, with smaller eating window (18/6?).


  1. You still won’t find a rant against the food industry from me. Mass production of food makes life in the 21st century an unimaginable heaven compared to 200 years ago.↩︎
