@imallears Much of your post I could have written myself! My husband sometimes wonders why it takes me as long as it does in the supermarket. It does because if I am buying foods in the aisles I read all of the ingredients and nutrients.

Both my son and daughter are very conscious of healthy eating. I don't think my son has eaten fast food in many years, and my daughter is very good but she does eat things that she should not occasionally. I was very heavy for a long time so I hope they will be conscious of their weight always, I know too well the health problems it causes.

I wish I could say my hair was shiny, etc., but it really is no different from my diet. I also wish I could say I have my nightly glass of wine, but when my non-alcoholic cirrhosis was diagnosed I could no longer have any alcohol. I miss my glass of wine with dinner. I do eat my dark chocolate, a piece almost every day.
