I'm a Veggie, You're a Veggie...Wouldn't you Wanna be a Veggie Too?

Yippee!!

Sweet potatoes are considered vegetables. And so are beans. With my workout schedule, I'm going to need the complex carbs.

I was wrong on my starting date. I want my veggies, fruits and nuts day to be on Fridays. So I will begin on 3.28.08.

Strangely, I am actually looking forward to this. I actually considered doing it for 2 days..but let's not be hasty...I'll see how the first time goes!

Strawberries, Grapes, Apples...Oh My!

In the interest of my health & to mix things up nutritionally, once a week, I will be doing to do a fruit and veggies only day.

This will not be an easy task for me at all! I will have to say goodbye to my daily bowl of oatmeal, my high fiber bread, yogurt & cheese. YIKES!

And unless I find out that sweet potato is a veggie...I'll have to give that up too. Drats.

Thankfully, I'm not one of those folks that have a general dislike for fruits & veggies...yes...there ARE folks out there like that!

Strawberries, cantaloupes, apples, kiwifruit, spinach, broccoli, grapes and such are staples in my home...so no problem there.

Not sure how breakfast is going to work. Salads are fine for lunch and dinner. Guessing this where my creativity & resourcefulness will come into play.

I recently tasted boiled edamame [soy beans] ..and yes...they were tasty!
More on edamame.

I am going to begin this on 3.27.08. I will continue this for a month..ending on 4.24.08.

I will update my progress after the month. Wish me luck!

Makes Sense to me!

Does This Clutter Make My Butt Look Fat?

This is the title of a book by Peter Walsh.

The premise is that clearing clutter out of the kitchen is one way to make headway into a healthier lifestyle.

Interesting concept.


This blog covers it well.
