What does "Healthy Eating" mean to you? I know that when I go to the store I am more aware of the things I put into my cart. I wasn't always aware of the groceries I would buy. My older children complain that I don't have "regular peanut butter" in my cupboard, but instead it's all natural peanut butter in the fridge. If you haven't guessed it they grew up on the processed filled with crap peanut butter. However, my youngest son thinks the stuff in the fridge is pretty darn good and he'll even eat the almond butter with flax seed that I get from Trader Joes. My older kids wouldn't eat that if their lives depended on it. It's hard to make changes in our lives especially when the kids have moved out of the house and no longer eat the food that you bring into your house. 10 years ago I wouldn't be eating the natural peanut butter either.
I have decided to find a cookbook and to review recipes from it. Do you have a favorite cookbook that you would recommend? Please keep in mind that we want Eating Clean or Paleo type cookbooks.
I have to keep in mind that there are no quick fixes. I didn't get to this weight overnight and it's not going to come off overnight. I have to find a balance, I don't do well when I am restricted to only eat "nuts & berries" but I don't do well when I don't have a plan either. It's a fine line and I know that I can do it.
This is my scattered blog post for you all. :)
