This is it...
Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog. I feel like it is important for you to understand my motivation to be healthy while enjoying life. I have lived for so long concentrating on the glass being half empty rather than half full. This is my public commitment to change that way of thinking and just be happy.

Please feel free to comment and call me out when I get off track. Also, let me know what I am missing or what would be a great addition to make my blog better.

No more oatmeal!

I think that I will be sick of oatmeal, turkey wraps and crackers, sweet potatoes and chicken. I need to expand on my menu selections. It has been difficult is finding the time to plan out what to eat. As work is busier, I am traveling more and I have little time even to make it to the grocery store. I have found a lot of recipes and cookbooks to help add more variety in my daily meals which is very encouraging.

Most of the seasoning and spices are still a possibility but rather than using one type of mixed seasoning I have to figure out what is in it and omit what I am allergic to and game on!

Curry is a perfect example because it includes paprika so all I have to do is get all the other spices and combine them to get a new flavor. Whole foods has the spices in bulk which is the way to purchase a variety of items for less than a dollar.

Menu:

Breakfast – steel cut oats and almond milk

Lunch – crunch master crackers, turkey and apples

Snack – Trader Joes Granola

Dinner – chicken with apricot mango chipotle sweet potatoes and broccoli

Dessert – Tofutti Vanilla Ice Cream

Happy Thoughts: There are more options for food than I can imagine! South Florida has some fresh food options and seasoning.
