Today was a difficult day for me. A childhood friend of mine passed away and I was very upset. My stomach was in knots and I didn't want to eat. I was going to juice for dinner and just didn't want to.
Later in the evening, I knew I had to eat something. The old me would have grabbed something quick, probably loaded with sugar or salt. The typical, let's grab 4-5 cookies and a big glass of milk was simply not going to happen this time. I instead chose a piece of Ezekiel bread, a little mustard and a slice of Swiss cheese. To satisfy my sweet tooth, because I didn't feel like cutting up any fruit, I had a few spoonfuls of a healthy chocolate gelato I was sparingly treating myself to.
I chose to make healthy choices on a day when I just wasn't into to doing anything. That is progress for me.
Days may be hard at times...... but choose to be healthy... you will feel better!
