The Power of One Good Habit...

Eight Eating Habits That Will Change Your Life!

D.I.E.T

F.R.E.E

• Drink Water. And think before you drink anything else.
• Include Breakfast. And stop eating 2 to 3 hours before bed.
• Eat often. And include a fruit or vegetable each time.
• Tame your sweet tooth. So that you will naturally eat as little sugar as possible.
• Find the fat. And know the good, the bad and the ugly.
• Replace processed, chemically enhanced food for wholesome, close-to-the-farm foods. And as much as possible, avoid products that list food colorings, chemical flavor enhances and preservatives you can't pronounce.
• Eat only until you are no longer hungry. And stop swallowing that lead-filled beach ball!
• Every once in a while, when the urge or circumstance dictates, it's all right to eat outside the guidelines of the other habits. And understand that this habit is just as important as the other seven.

These simple habits are better explained in the book, also you can click HERE and get a more in depth overview of them as well as the chance to print the steps out, I printed it and tucked one in my purse and one on the fridge.

If you are reading this post through an email subscription, go to the actual site and look on the side bar, I am in the process of creating a weight loss graph, not where everyone can see what I weigh but once a week I will tell you what I have lost, if anyone else wants a chart let me know???

And if you have had some kind of a healthy tip or a healthy goal that you have reached post about it here.

For instance Norm & I have swam 2 nights in a row!!!! WooHoo!!!!

We are still taking applicants for our swim team!!! Heehee!!!

Have a great week!!!!

H2O w/Lemon!

One Saturday after work I settled on the couch and flipped through the TV and happened to stop at a cooking show on PBS and this sweet gal Zona Foco had just splattered herself with a fruit thing she had been mixing in the blender, instead of them editing it out she just laughed about it for a couple minutes and went on to make some lovely HEALTHY dishes!

After her show I went on Amazon.com to get her cook book Likety Split Meals,

then I stumbled upon this lovely book, Water with Lemon,

you can read a chapter by clicking here,

which is what I did and then I couldn't wait to get it in the mail and finish it!

Unlike most "diet" books this one grabbed me right away.

I love Amazon.com because you can get used books, which is what I got I think I paid $7 for the book and it is always $3.99 S&H.

I will be willing to loan mine out, but I would like it back within a week because I really want to make notes and things in the book

(I love to do that with my books, which is why I don't mind them used).

Anyway, I am going to post here the little secrets of this book, because I feel that it is a great way to look at being healthy! Look for my post tomorrow about:
