better food better me...

It is time that I start the dreaded process of being a grown up, and part of that, as I near my 25th birthday, is realizing that maintaining my physical and mental health is up to me and will require some effort. Along this vein I am trying very hard to change my eating patters. I am trying to eat more nutritiously and more ethically. I want my food dollars to count for something in my community, and I want them to be working optimally for my physical health and wellbeing, for increased energy and vitality. Anybody with any tips on just saying no to the pizza place I walk by every day after work, or the allure of panda black licorice please let me know!
