Habitrition

I believe good nutrition and fitness habits lead to a happy life. Fad diets and the "in" workout programs do not sustain over time. There must be a life change formed. My goal is to assist you in making that life change by reading my blog entries. Join me as I give information and resources that can aid in creating healthy habits and turning those good habits into permanent live changes. This is a blog of healthy food recipes, nutrition topics, and research information of all things nutrition and fitness.

Habitrition Mom pt 2 (salad

Today Habitrition Mom decided to make a wonderful salad. It consists of Spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, broccoli, celery, raisins, dried cranberries and avocado (I added baby carrots and Parmesan cheese to mine).

In addition to the salad she had a leg and thigh of a rotisserie chicken to round out the meal.  

Sometimes the best salads come from throwing all the raw vegetables you have into a bowl as exemplified here. Enjoy.

2: Drink water

3: Plan your eating schedule
