Obvious, or not?

I was watching something today that talked about how people complain about how it costs more to eat healthy but yet they spend money on more useless things than ever.

Research has shown that if you buy fresh, unprocessed foods that your grocery bill may be a little higher, but your cost of healthcare or health related issues will be lower than those who eat cheaper, but more processed foods.

Which would you choose? The answer should be obvious.

30 Days- Day 4

Day 4- Describe what you ate today in great detail.

This is easy-peasy, especially since it doesn’t require much thinking, just a recollection of what I’ve eaten today. I’ll break it down into meals.

Breakfast- Steel-Cut oats with a sprinkle of cinnamon, a vanilla Splenda stick and a dash of fat-free coffee cream. Two cups of coffee and 1 1/2 liters of ice water.

Lunch- Two whole-grain crackers with hummus that has taco sauce mixed in with it for a little ‘spice’.

Dinner- Baked chicken breast seasoned with garlic- steamed broccoli with low-fat spicy cheese melted on top, steamed green beans, honey-dew melon.

Snack- 1 cup of fat-sugar free strawberry yogurt with a few raw almonds and some whole-grain muesli.

That’s it folks.
