Parent Testing a Habit: Healthy Eating

To say that this weeks habit was a disaster is…well….an understatement. Why do you think I haven’t released any details of my actual food intake (hee hee). I have the minor excuse of suffering a little with the old crohns, which always knocks my regular eating habit, but I can’t lay all the blame there…

I’ve decided that trying to overhaul my whole eating pattern is just too much to ask, after all, I am a busy parent. I have decided to break this habit down into stages, the first step being to overhaul breakfast. From now on breakfast will consist of a variety of the following;

Fresh juice and/or coffee
Melba Toast with Philadelphia or
Granary Toast with butter/marmalade or
Rice Krispies

I hope that by starting with breakfast I can move onto better habits at other meals too, we shall see.

    This is SO difficult! Hope you are okay. I’m on this Weightwatchers diet and have managed to lose 13lbs since May, but fell off the wagon in a big way the last few days. The hardest part for me is resisting the temptation to snack between meals – I’m not too bad at the appointed meal times.

    For me, it’s mostly a case of being organised enough to prepare healthy meals, especially at breakfast and lunch…
