My body is still going strong & I'm still alive- can you believe it?! I've become fond of Powerballs & peanut butter. I'm talking {real} peanut butter. Not your average Skippys or Jiff. Peanut butter that is so creamy you have to stir it before you use it & an ingredient list {one} word long. Peanuts.
This is real food. Not sugar, not GMO's. Peanuts.
I eat it on just about everything, Homemade Whole Wheat Pita bread, Rice cakes, Apple sandwhiches {which are also a new favorite} and with a spoon. My palate is starting to adjust to eating real food but I still have a twitch to pick up my hubby's rockstar. Or lick the waffe batter that I made for Baby Bella.
For me the hardest thing to do is refrain from random snacking- on anything and everything- even if it's not mine :) Luckily my hubby & baby girl love to share, so it's been a non-issue...but now I can't share. I'm eating different foods than they are. Unprocessed Foods.
After catching myself a few times it's amazing to me {how much} I actually just sipped on soda or took just a bite of some frozen food. All because I wanted a taste. I was grazing, not eating. It's so enlightening to analyze my eatings habits and realize that what I was doing wasn't healthy. Now I enjoy my meals, take time to taste my food & appreciate real food for what it is, not how much sugar content it has :)
I bring my lunch {in my favorite lunchbox ever} to work everyday.
Here's my lunch today from left to right:
- Frozen whole wheat zucchini muffin- Premade & I keep them frozen so they last longer. They de-frost by lunch time.
- Apple Sandwhich- two slices of apple with peanut butter & raisins in the middle.
- Whole Organic Milk
- Organic Yogurt with added pro-biotics
- Homemade Granola - SO GOOD!
- A locally grown Plum
- A Powerball- I keep these frozen till I eat them too :) Almost like dessert.
What did you pack in your lunch today?!
