Staying on Track It can be quite easy to veer away from your usual healthy eating ways. Some common deterrents might be vacationing, traveling, family/friends visiting, or those special occasions & holidays. Try to stick to your guns when faced with these situations. Focus on 2 main things:
- Aim for 3 meals, avoid grazing and snacking! - Protein and vegetable at meal times are always the best choice Most importantly, if you found yourself straying and making other choices, make sure it comes to an end and the “bad" foods and snacks go home with your visitors and don’t stay in your cupboards. Its okay to try new foods or to have bites of your favorite food item on special occasions but make sure it starts and stops there. As always, let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. I hope everyone is well! ~ Amy
