Blog Life: Healthier Eating

Hello everyone! Blog Life: Healthier Eating. My Lifestyle change journey started 2-3 years ago. I intentionally focused on losing weight and eating healthier. I have made so many healthy food changes during this time. I’ve had my ups, downs and failures. Quitting isn’t an option. Never Give Up, Never Quit! I love the changes on my physical appearance, physical endurance and health.

Blog Life: Healthier Eating has its Struggles

I still have my struggles. That pushes me research more for healthier food options and the journey continues. Many health issues can be linked to poor diet. Healthy food choices can help improve overall health without pharmaceutical medicines. I’m living proof. Sometimes we have to rely on doctors and the medical profession to treat our conditions and ailments. A healthy nutritional diet is always a good addition. Blog Life: Healthier Eating often requires drastic change.

I’ve changed what I eat. When I eat. How much I eat. Changes in my daily diet can happen often. I’m enjoying the journey. It’s challenging and the key to success is self denial and discipline. You will not be able to eat whatever you want. Healthier choices are key to success always! Take care of your body it belongs to God and is the Temple of the Holy Ghost! I’ve learned this very late in life. A Life of morbid obesity and a very undisciplined diet. I have done a lot of damage to myself. A lot! God is good and gracious. Blog Life: Healthier Eating Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.

Breakfast & Lunch

My breakfast up until the last week or so has consisted of Liquid Eggs, Spinach, Mushrooms, Multigrain Flatbread and a Cheese Salsa Dip. I’ve had to lower and monitor my sodium content. Processed foods like liquid eggs, Flatbread and Cheese Dip tend to be high in Sodium. I still eat my Liquid Eggs maybe once or twice a week. My focus is on Oatmeal for breakfast with a bit of artificial sweetener. I might have Rice Cakes with Whipped Cream Cheese spread on them. These two items have a reasonable amount of sodium and help keep me under my daily Sodium intake goal. The Oatmeal is very good for me, it’s filling and will help keep anyone regular!

The second dish is pasta with Spinach and Broccoli and a low sodium Marinara Sauce. My final dish is packaged Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, not frozen. Frozen chicken contains much more Sodium. I Smothered the Chicken Breasts with Red Onions, Colored Sweet Peppers, and Celery. I don’t use Salt at all to season my food anymore. The rice is a mixture of White and Brown with Broccoli added in. When I prepare a dish like this with such a low level of Sodium I’m able to use a serving or two of Cheese Dip to add a touch of flavor. Yet I stay within the range I want of Sodium intake for the meal. Blog Life: Healthier Eating can change your life for the better!
