Once again, MyFitnessPal is giving me interesting insight into my nutrition levels. For the past week, I should have had 211 grams of sugar. I had triple that amount! Just putting enough coffee mate in my coffee to make it taste good uses up my sugar allowance for the day. It is time to pay more attention to labels! What do you think? Any ideas for making meals/ drinks healthier but still tasty? What is the healthiest sugar alternative? How do you satisfy your sweet tooth?     

Just a week ago, I tried the "My Fitness Pal" app for the first time. I have been logging all of my meals, and it shows not only calories, but levels of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium and iron, etc... The iron levels were the worst - only about 25 percent of the goal. I went out and bought a multi-vitamin this weekend. But here is my question to all the vegans and vegetarians out there: What are your favorite iron-rich foods and recipes?
