Health Tip of the Day

Are you really hungry – or dehydrated? Lack of water can make you think you’re hungry for food, leading to overeating and weight gain. Drink at least half of your weight in oz througout the day.

Its time to take control!

Ok... I have been lazy and as you can see I have not updated this blog since June 18th. To my defense, we have been busy. We just got back from a wonderful vacation in ME and as I stepped on the scale I realized it is time to take control. I had gained 3 lbs. I know it is ONLY 3 lbs, but soon it would 5, 10, 15.........

So I am going to stop telling myself that I will get back on track tomorrow, and take charge and will start today (I should have really started yesterday)...

Here is my food log for today
Breakfast
Banana
Large coffee w/ 6 oz skim milk

Snack 1
2 cups blueberries

Lunch
2 slices of Hemp Healthy bread
1 tbsp Almond butter
0.5 tbsp Honey

Snack 2
1 cup Navy Beans
0.5 Avocado
1 lime (juiced)

Dinner
Large Salad (mixed greens, bell pepper, alpha alpha sprouts, tomato, cucumber, olives)

I skipped gym yesterday and today as I had bad cramps (no excuse) and was still tired from getting up early and going to bed late.
