It's Too Hard

If you think eating healthy is too hard, try going through chemo or radiation or surgery!

Please don't be overwhelmed. Try one thing at a time. For example:
  • Today for lunch, start with something raw, a fruit or a vegetable. Eat as much as you can and chew it well. If you are still hungry, then add something else. The raw beginning is the beginning of your savings account for good health.
  • What one thing should you start replacing in your diet? Pick it and see if you can replace the unhealthy choice with the healthy choice, one bite or one sip at a time. At the end of the week, you will be impressed with yourself.
  • What one food should you banish from your home? Be brave. Pick it up, bring it to a neighbor but why should you give them something that is not good for you. Put it in the trash and you will be so upset about wasting money, that you will never buy that again.
  • What one food habit should you reverse: coffee instead of getting more sleep; coffee instead of walking to wake up; coffee instead of an apple? Challenge yourself and get someone else to do it with you.
When you have mastered this list, start at the first bulleted point and add a second thing. You can do this!
