The one thing I'm really starting to believe is true if I believe Im a healthy person then that is what I become. No I haven't reached my goal weight just yet. But when I make healthy choices in each meal. It's amazing how the rest just falls in place.
I bought a new pair of Capri's a couple weeks ago and they were Little snug now they are baggy... Yes there are times I am tempted. But for the most part I am a healthy person.
What you believe is what you will become. At first it was just me imitating what I wanted to be now I am becoming what I believe.
Personally I love soup sometimes when I do not feel like a large meal. I will sip on soup. This may be eaten warm or cold. I even eat soup in the summer time.
1 cup of onion
2 garlic cloves
1 and half cups of veggie broth
1 Avocado
3 cups of cucumber
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 tablespoon of lemon
1/2 cup of plain yogurt
Heat chopped onion and garlic gloves , add lemon juice and heat for about one minute. Add broth, and cucumber, Add all in a blender or food processor. Be careful. And puree. Add avocado. And yogurt.
You may add a pinch of cayenne pepper . This soup can be served warm or chilled. Its healthy and a wonderful snack or nice with a salad.
Makes 4 servings one cup
One of the sweet treats we all love is plain yogurt with berries or fruit. Greek Yogurt is excellent for you. The yogurt in the store that is already sweetened is not so good. The fruit gives the yogurt a sweet taste. It's like eating McDonald's yogurt at home.
We always buy the big bag of frozen strawberries each week and use it for smoothies and shakes or this. It is only like $7.00 at Walmart and it last all week. I defrost the berries and put in Patience lunch sometimes at school. This is a treat food for Patience I have no guilt about. She likes a sprinkle of cinnamon on her yogurt.
I have not yet give up eggs. And since we are watching the carbs.
I make egg salad on lettuce leaves.
Boil about 4 eggs
Chop 1 celery stalk
About 1/2 cup of onions
And any other veggies :bell pepper, carrots (a food processor chops everything in nice bite size pieces)
After the eggs are boiled and cooled peel and put in the food processor. And pulse about 6 times. You do not want mushy egg salad. Then I add about 3 Tablespoons of Mayo
And one teaspoon of mustard. And all the veggies. And a sprinkle of dill weed.
This is a snack when you miss having dip. The lettuce leaf is lot lower in carbs than chips. This makes about 4-5 generous servings.
This is a snack I make for Patience and it is Patience approved.
