So a success and a failure. Definitely didn't stick to my meal plan that I created on Sunday. It seemed so fool proof....hmmph. But still, I followed it mostly....with the exception of a few anxious hunger panic attacks ending up in a macaroni and cheese binge and a couple bowls of ice cream. (ok maybe a few. Or maybe 4)
Still I'm gonna chalk it up to a good week. I stuck to good foods for 90% of my day. And I kept pretty close to eating every 3 hours. And I still have the motivation to keep it up. So pat on my back for a good week. Goals: Eat more of the good stuff instead of focusing on calories right now. No more hunger panic attacks for me.
I spotted Cuties at the grocery store and I woud have done a cartwheel right there in the aisle, but one of my serious secrets is that I have never been able to do a cartwheel so shhh. We'll keep that between us. Cuties are seriously good stuff. They are snackable and yummy and healthy. I love them in salads. And I eat em like candy. You should too.
The dirt on Cuties:
Mentally - they smell citrusy and good and it makes me happy. Actually, citrusy is known to lower stress levels. So sniff em before you chow down.
For your heart - fat free, cholesterol free, and sodium free. Also has folate, which fights heart disease.
Satisfying - loaded with fiber, keeping you full for longer. Always a good thing when you're cutting back.
Healing powers - yes, actual powers to heal your wounds and keep gums and teeth healthy. Loaded with vitamin C.
Snackable - only about 40 calories per Cutie so snack away. Have a handful. Eat em like candy. They're super easy to peel and seedless.
Tis the season for Cuties - they'll be around til May.
Jen, love you and your blog!! Way to go on your healthy goals...love love love cuties!! : )
