Eating Out

I am on day four of weightwatchers today and having no problem sticking with it. Feel very strong and looking forward to seeing poundage melt off *GRINS*. One problem in counting points is eating out, so I started this thread to capture those pages I'll need to refer to when counting what I eat when I'm out. I hope it helps you too. The first?

An apple a day

I keep reading about the crucial nutrients contained in apples, oranges and bananas. I keep hearing about the importance of eating 6-8 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. I keep promising to up my fruit and vegetable consumption. And I keep reaching for a quick sweet treat that ends up sabotaging my healthy diet plans.

Here's what I tried today. I put a crisp Royal Gala apple, a just-ripe banana and a sweet, juicy clementine in a small dish. I plunked that mini fruit bowl right beside my desk. And today, I satisfied my mid-morning and mid-afternoon cravings with something sweet AND nutritious!

Moral of the story: Keep your goal in plain sight!

I dedicate this blog to Louise

...who is my bestest girlfriend, queen of yoyo dieting and hopefully a contributor to this new blog. Why did I start this blog? I started this blog because I'm tired of carrying extra luggage, and being out of shape, and out of balance. I want to grow more healthy habits and I'm asking for advice. Please share with me girlfriend! Sue :)
