Being Prepared

August 20, 2017

In order to eat healthy, I have to be prepared.  This has been a major downfall for me in the past.   Here's what I've done to help.

I've been to the Farmers' Market every Saturday morning for five or six weeks.

I've been to the grocery all weeks but one.

My fridge is full of fruits and vegetables and healthy foods.

My pantry has healthy choices.   Rice, pasta, beans...

I'm cooking and making enough for leftovers.

I'm taking my lunch with me to work some days, and my desk is stocked with food and snacks.  The drawer is neat, making it easy for me to find food when needed.  I'm fortunate also that there's a fridge to use, and a microwave if I need it, though I seldom use one and don't have a microwave at home anymore.  (The stove top and oven work just fine.)

This takes time and effort, but hopefully new habits are forming and in a short time this will all be routine.

Forward.
