I was only partially kidding around the other day with my “Make Good Choices!” post. I forget to eat breakfast a lot. Because of medication, I can’t eat for an hour after I get up. By then, I’ve become absorbed by the day’s activities, and it’s often several hours before I realize I haven’t eaten. This is NOT GOOD.
Funny thing is, I never forget to get online. Or that I have a blog. Or that I like taking photographs. That’s why there will sometimes be coffee cup or breakfast photos on my blog. It’s not because I think you care what I’m eating. It’s because this is one way I have of encouraging myself to make healthy choices or even to remember that I need to eat. If it reminds someone else to make good choices, too, then…yay! Don’t forget your glass of water with every meal.
Healthy: maple cinnamon oatmeal with fresh raspberries; Light & Fit blueberry yogurt with fresh blueberries added.
The once-a-week-love-fest: eggs (fried yes, but using canola cooking spray), bacon, half a fresh orange with fresh blueberries, dry wheat toast. Tankard of coffee with Sweet and Low and fat-free Half & Half. No one understands fat-free Half & Half, so don’t torment yourself trying to make logic of it.
A little frosted indulgence: mini wheats with fresh raspberries in one percent milk; half an orange.
You may post as many breakfast portraits as you wish, dear lady. They are good inspiration.
Thank you. I’m hoping they will help keep me on track.
Breakfast and other meal portraits are fine. Pretty food pictures are good inducements to eating well. Fat-free half & half is like fat-free sour cream. Neither one makes any sense. 😉
You’re so right! However, as a sour cream addict, I have been disappointed in fat-free sour cream. But the fat-free Half & Half doesn’t bother me.
If you come make a delicious looking breakfast for me, I’ll gladly make my whole wheat pecan pancakes for you.
It’s a deal!
