I hate feeling like I can only eat what is on the list. I don't think eating that is that regimented and restrictive is that healthy. I think variety, and moderation are healthy.
I have spent the last few days researching and working on a presentation about body image and I realized just how terrible it is to encourage everyone to fit into "their skinnies" instead of encouraging everyone to be healthy, happy, and enjoy their food.
Yes the food is tasty, and I love the breakfast smoothies... but I felt like I was constantly thinking about what I could eat. So while the recipes are good, I don't want to eat only these things for an entire week.
I love the idea of simple exercise ideas that everyone can do daily - those are great. And I will continue to do something active every day.
I just don't like the idea of being on a plan and feeling restricted - If I want to have a chocolate left over from christmas I don't want to feel guilty because it's not on the "plan".
So while I am going to finish the chicken salad and bruschetta chicken I made because they are yummy but I am not going to worry about the meal plan so much.
SO here is what I ate today....
So Once again I stared the day off with a Breakfast Smoothie - I added spinach this time. I love adding spinach to smoothies because its a good way to get some greens and you can't really taste it! They are quick to make in the morning.
Lunch was a Pepperoni pizza bun :)
Because I have soccer practice on Wednesday nights I didn't go to the gym after work
When I got home from work I had bruschetta chicken with feta melted on top, carrots and cherry tomatoes. And A little piece of cheese cake.
Now I am off to do a little strength before my 1hour soccer practice.
Health and happiness xX
