I made breakfast for 5 people which included bagels and breads that I don’t eat and served them all with a smile from my heart. I had a plain omelette made with 1 egg yoke and 3 egg whites. It’s a good thing I am not romanticizing or missing the breads.
I was planning to keep it really simple tonight when a friend and his kids decided to join us for New Years Eve! So that meant a second trip to the store. On my first trip, I thought I might buy some organic blue corn chips and organic salsa and go off my plan just a little bit. As we made our list for the second trip to the store, we came up with one healthy alternative in addition to all the chips and snacks foods that were on the list. Homemade guacamole. In keeping it simple, we decided to have pizza for everyone while I had a few raw zucchini’s shaved and topped with marinara sauce. So far so good!
While I don’t think it was the best decision to have the blue corn chips, I did anyway and dipped them into the guacamole. I enjoyed every bite. I passed on everything else, including the pizza, diet coke and all sugary snacks. All in all, I made it though another holiday on track.
Inspiring to read on Day 1 of the New Year! Thank you, Josie.
“Now that is commitment to a goal. Your awareness of when you are making a choice that is great or just second best is the difference that will ultimately result in your long term success. Instead of giving up and indulging in not so healthy meals you think about what would make a better, healthier alternative. I applaud your innovative thinking and your strength at self motivation.
