Check-up

So how are we doing? Are you sticking to a good eating schedule?
I have to admit that I am slacking a bit already. It is hard to change my snacking habits. I am getting there, though. Last week, I was thinking that maybe I should introduce a new goal each week instead of every two weeks. I am glad I didn't. It takes me a week to get used to the new goal, and another week to fine tune it! Maybe I am just reluctant?

I would also like to share something I find helpful. While I tend to snack a lot while I am home, I find that I eat far less when I am out and about for the day. Sometimes the time just seems to get away from me and I will go 4 or 5 hours without eating. Not good. I like to make sure I have a couple of snacks with me. I will slip a Fiber One bar in the diaper bag (yes, the diaper bag has completely replaced my purse.) for an emergency snack. Other great options are an apple, a box of raisins, a small bag of almonds or other nuts, trail mix, peanut butter dipper cups and a few whole grain crackers, or even a sandwich. You know, something healthy, easy, and fast.
