I’ve heard fitness guru’s mention that eating healthy doesn’t necessarily cost more! That’s a crazy assumption. Of course it cost more and eating healthy takes a bigger chunk out of your food budget. Fresh fruits and vegetables are sky high and if you eat meat that even more. I heard one of the fitness instructor to the star’s say “sure you can eat meat just pay attention to the source of the meat, choice your cuts wisely better cuts - better money and purchase from a place like Whole Foods. I don’t know what stores are in other areas of the country but Whole Foods are here in the south. It’s a commercial version of a health food store. The store is big, clean and bright, displays are inviting. You can get health foods, holistic items, just about anything you choice in gluten free products, fresh vegetables/fruits and the meat department reminds me of the old meat stores we used to go to. Everything is fresh and it all looks delectable but….. You get what you pay for… read that expensive.
So I’m trying to be creative in what I buy fix and eat. I’m not a fan of cooking. I can cook but I find it to be a chore rather than a joy. I think that’s why I drifted away from WW. The idea of planning meals as well as fix them is not my forte. However, I need to stay healthy, wealthy and wise so I’m trying to find a happy medium to do just that.
Today wasn’t a huge appetizing food day but I’m healthily full. I had breakfast- a protein shake and fruit, lunch- veggies and a baked potato, and a fruit snack. Don’t know what I’ll have for dinner but I’m thinking about it now before I feel hungry.
And this is just day 4!!
