Let's Talk

Hello Everyone,

How are your diet plans working so far this year. Remember it's never easy letting go of the foods that we love; but, we have to keep in mind that we are doing this for our health. Try to find something to eat in it's place that is just as satisfying that you can have instead. For example I love chocolate, instead of eating milk chocolate I now eat dark chocolate. I don't eat it that often, only when I have a chocolate craving; and I love the chocolate covered almonds.

Also, I love crunchy foods such as potatoe chips. Instead of having chips for lunch I eat Quaker Oat Squares, they are really good; my son even like them. And they are a very healthy snack 1 cup has only 190 calories, 5 grams of fiber and you are also getting 90% of your daily requirement of Iron. You can not go wrong eating these cereal as a snack.

What are some ideals that you can share with me? I would love to hear from you.
