Eating Right

When you work, have a family, clean the house, do the shopping, pay the bills...well you get the picture...It is hard to eat right.

I try to make nutritious meals but sometimes doing the quick thing is the easiest. But quick sometimes means High Fat, Calories, and Salt and very little nutritional value.

Now doing the quick thing is not a bad thing. But doing it often is. There are nights that we do finger foods. These are in the frozen food isle and are things like mini tacos and potato skins. Yeah these things are not good for us. They are quick, and OK I admit it, they taste good.

If you want to eat healthier or even try to lose a few pounds denying yourself will only kill your goals. The idea is to have a little and do not over indulge. So every now and then it is OK to have a small piece of cake. Or go out to eat at your favorite restaurant, skip the appetizers and share your dessert. (that is my favorite way to cut down on calories).

I hope to post some tips that might help you (and that have worked for me) and maybe learn a few things in the process.
