Welcome to my health, wellness and weight-loss journey. My desire is that you receive something here from my personal testimony that will encourage you to a healthier lifestyle. I will try to update this journal often....hopefully every week if time permits.
HEALTH AND WELLNESS JOURNAL MARCH 16, 2010
Here's another great recipe from my daughter-in-law Michele. In this recipe, Michele makes her own Artisan bread. You can find the Artisan ready made bread in the grocery stores. I get the Bragg's Liquid Aminos at Sunflower store OR any natural foods store; if you don't have this, then use Soy Sauce.
Until next week - stay healthy - Wanda

HEALTHY SNACK PACK
It's so easy to take this handy snack with you in your lunch or purse. I get the bulk nuts and fruits at Sprouts or Sunflower stores and then mix them myself. For the mixture I used 3 cups almonds and 1 cup each: raisins, cherries, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and pineapple. You can use any combination you like. Place in the small Ziploc baggies.

The cabbage soup recipe along with some of the other soup recipes has been more beneficial to my weight loss than any other foods. My experience has been to eat healthier and along with this comes the weight loss. I don't do very well if I get hungry, so I don't have any size portions..I just eat until I'm full, but try to not over eat. I don't count calories/carbs that some of the popular diets have...I just focus on eating healthy. I try to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. My mind set and attitude to being healthier is the most important factor for success in all areas of health, wellness and weight-loss.
- Don't over eat
- Drink lots of water
- Avoid sugar
- Keep whole almonds for snacks on hand (I keep a Ziploc bag in my car)
-
Think "healthier" instead of "dieting" to lose weight.
- Don't set a certain time limit on reaching your goal - it's a JOURNEY..you will reach your goal!
