This week is the perfect example of “eating in moderation.”  I had some unhealthy meals, but the majority of my meals were fairly healthy.

I also made sure more fruits and veggies finally found their way into my diet.

Unfortunately, my wife was out of town this week and I was exhausted after work so I opted for a few quick, easy greasy choices.  Next week, I’ll try to have much smaller dinners with some type of healthy attributes to them.
