Nutrition – Healthy Eating in the New Year
Good nutrition is necessary to fuel the body. I worked with a registered dietician, Dawn Jackson Blatner, three years ago for an article in All You magazine. We altered our eating habits for 2 weeks and journaled our daily intake. My kids were not on board initially but we made it through 2 weeks with some likes and dislikes. After my doctor’s visit last month, I reached out to Dawn for some tips on revamping my eating habits for the new year.
Dawn shared some great tips directly from her website and the link to her new book. I know first hand as a full-time working mom, eating right wavers from week to week. I am sharing some of the infographics below Dawn shared with me and the best tip from Dawn “Don’t get overwhelmed, just have fun trying new things”.
My biggest struggle is my sweet tooth, I tried 2 of these recipes over the weekend. The oatmeal banana cookies and the hot apple crisp. A little sugar goes a long way to satisfy a sugar craving.
