So what IS my view on healthy eating?
Healthy eating has many faces. There are many diets and lifestyles. I've researched many of them, searching for "the way". I'll be honest, never found it. There are good aspects and bad aspects to every diet on the market. What to do, what not to do... It eventually became clear to me that there is a big picture. This big picture has become the important part, the core, of what I choose to consume. Here is what I've learned:
Carbohydrates are not your friend. (minimize as much as possible, remember we're all human, and stay within your limit).
Even though I'm ALLOWED 2-5 servings (30-75 grams) of carbohydrates per meal, there is nothing on this planet that will raise my blood sugar more and faster than the consumption of carbohydrates.
Protein, while absolutely necessary, must also be limited in order to avoid weight gain.
And I have adopted a ketogenic/LCHF lifestyle. I chose the fat over the bread. However, the recipes posted here are considered healthy from a diabetic stand point in today's society.
And last but not least, We all need to drink more water.
