Eating Healthy – Step 1
The first step on my 20lb journey will have to be eating healthier.
Not to say that I now stuff my face with fast food and grease, but just building on what I already do. I rarely eat out except while I am at work. At home we tend to cook a lot, with 2 little ones depending on us to show them how to eat healthy and keeping it delicious. This in itself is normally pretty easy as we all tend to enjoy our veggies and pasta.. however the house is split when it comes down to meat…
This causes all of us to eat the fake stuff while at home, not that I couldn’t cook up a piece of chicken or eat a turkey sandwich (which I do every now and then). Its just tough when it comes to figuring out what to cook. You can only eat pasta so many times and then get burnt out and growing up in a house where we ate meat and I learned to cook dinners using it. So when it comes to my night to cook, sometimes it is a little frustrating.
I joined a site (http://www.eatbetteramerica.com) which hopefully will give me some tasty ideas when it comes to dinner. The best part is we can substitute the real chicken, turkey, etc. with the fake stuff. (Honestly it is very tasty)
