Chorizo's my only real vice, I can blame that on the portuguese missus. I never fry my food, don't eat chips, no refined sugar, fresh fruit and vegetables. Grilled bacon and boiled eggs instead of a fatty full English breakfast. Trim the fat off the meat, less red meat, more chicken. I enjoy my food and I enjoy cooking, never going to live on DING meals and chips.

That's not very different from my diet really.  I eat vast amounts of salad and vegetables (good for you but almost no calories), a moderate amount of fruit, lots of chicken, fish, eggs, nuts, some lean red meat, some cheese.  Carbs come from the fruit and veg and carefully-controlled amounts of things like houmous, lentils, split peas, oats... I do still eat a small amount of bread (soya and linseed).

No cakes, crisps, biscuits, ice cream, sugary cereals..... all of which I used to love.  It was absolute murder learning to live without those.  :(
