10. Your meals are monochromatic.
If your plate tends to look all brown, white, and beige, you’re probably missing out on important nutrients. Many of the cancer-fighting phytochemicals found in fruit and vegetables are what are what give them their color. Aim for at least two of the following colors in each meal: red, green, yellow, purple and orange.

11. You skip dinner because you pick food off your kids plates.
You may not have a handle on exactly how many calories you’re consuming. And what appeals to children is not always the healthiest for you (think chicken nuggets, full-fat cheese or peanut butter and marshmallow sandwiches). Get something for yourself, then keep your hands off their food.

12. You always go with the veggies.
You reason that vegetables are lowest in calories and fat. They are, but not the oil they’re often floating in. Ask the chef to use very little oil or to grill them.

13. You’re a slave to salads.
The word salad doesn’t necessarily mean what you’re getting is healthy. For instance, a taco salad-with creamy dressing, full-fat cheese and a crisp tortilla shell-can contain as many as 850 calories and 52 grams of fat. Better toppings include raw veggies, plain tuna, grilled chicken, hard-boiled egg whites, chickpeas and light vinaigrettes.

14. You’re hooked on wraps.
“The huge tortillas used for wrap sandwiches can contain 300 to 400 calories, similar to a sub roll,” says a staff dietitian with the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine in Washington, D.C. Wraps can also be soaked in dressings or other fatty toppings. Make one yourself, eat just half, and save the rest, or buy the kind without cheese, mayo, pesto or any other mystery sauce.
