Changes in eating habits

I have been meaning to post about our eating plan, I don't want to call it a diet, since it's really a lifelong change, and who wants to spend their entire life on a diet? not us!
Prevention Magazine has an article online called Top 10 Cholesterol Fighting Foods, I like Prevention Magazine, they have always struck me as practical and sensible. So two of the changes that I have made is that I am incorporating a cup of beans into our daily food regime. It's been easy so far. I have been adding more spinach to our diet, we already enjoy it in Saag Paneer, and of course Spinach Salad. I cooked spinach with lemon juice and garlic the other day.
I tend towards using a lot of garlic as a matter of course in my cooking, but I'm thinking that I need to roast a few heads to use as a spread.
Of course, my post on the Thai food that I made makes it seem like a lie, but I really only ate a little of everything. The pork that I used happed to already be in my freezer, it was lean tenderloin, so I don't feel too badly. The shrimp are a no-no, but once again we really only had a few, since they were mixed in the Pad Thai and the Red Fried Rice.
