What I Eat: A Day In The Life

?Breakfast
"A glass of half orange juice, half club soda. It has a lot less sugar than a full glass of orange juice and it still tastes good. I'll also have any kind of whole-grain cereal. My two sons, Kristian, 14, and Kory, 13, had milk allergies when they were young, so we use rice milk."

?Lunch
"A bowl of fat-free cottage cheese with a handful of red grapes mixed into it. Water to drink. If I'm going to work out, I'll also have a cinnamon-raisin energy bar."

?Dinner
"I usually have a green salad, then a pasta dish like fettuccine with vodka sauce. We subscribe to Cook's Illustrated, and I make a good corn chowder from a recipe I found in there, so sometimes we have that. We're not wine connoisseurs, but we'll have a glass of Chianti with dinner. For dessert I'll have chocolate-chip cookies. I don't think you should deny yourself. We need to indulge the moderate vices in life or else our mind will build them up and we'll crave them too much."
