With the goal of self-improvement, I made ten New Year's resolutions a year ago, and managed to keep seven of them. That return-on-investment makes me think it's worth doing again, so I'm hereby soliciting suggestions for ten resolutions for 2019!
I'd like to ban "processed foods" from my diet but I don't have a good definition of "processed" allowing me to rule out the sort of "food" you find in a US gas station (long trips; bad planning; desperate measures!) while still letting me to eat, say, Wensleydale. Ideas, anyone?

I would also like to improve my French, German and Polish. My best idea was to aim for a certain vocabulary size (which I could measure with Anki). I thought a target of 2500 French words, 1000 German words and 500 Polish words would be a reasonable target. Any better ideas?

Wildcard suggestions are good, too! Last year someone suggested meditation, which I hated and was one of my failures. But I liked the suggestion, and I'm willing to try most things, though they do have to fit in with my itinerant lifestyle. Looking forward to the suggestions.

How about food with added sugar? or at least anything with HFCS
-
Seems like a good start. And first time I had heard "HFCS" as an acronym! I think I'd like to go further, though... Avoiding preservatives seems highly desirable, too.

Try according nitrates? They are the carcinogen in some bacon and other processed meat. Parma ham is ok but most other cured near isn't

Interesting, I'm going to research this... I wonder if I'll end up just making a snap judgement on whether the thing I'm going to eat looks fresh or processed. This broadly correlates to how appetising it is, anyway, though there are exceptions...

Oh, "no-logo" might be a good metric! It's the sort of criterion I'm looking for...

A common one is " nothing from a packet with more than x ingredients. "

I can imagine that's a great indicator, actually!
