Resetting my mindful eating goals
Okay... I am going to try again to document what I put into my mouth just to help me be mindful of the things I am choosing to nourish myself with. I am hoping that mindful eating will help me rejuvenate my healthy eating habits. Mindfulness is a form of meditation that helps a person… Continue reading Resetting my mindful eating goals
Second Jump Start – My Health Journey
I am still working on my health journey, but I have lost focus... especially in taking pictures of meals and reporting... and even in tracking every morsel, calorie, and mirco-nutrient. I think that I lost focus and interest in tracking all that stuff when after being on a plateau for several months. Sure, I lost… Continue reading Second Jump Start – My Health Journey
Can I Eat Like a Buddhist?

Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise… in Progress

Ending My Summer, but Keeping Plant Power!
Okay... I really need to make more time for food. Today I had trouble finding the time to make and eat food. So much to do and so little time to do it! I am happy to report that I didn't cave and eat crappy food just because I was starving. Last week was a… Continue reading Ending My Summer, but Keeping Plant Power!
