Eating from home; living out in the world

Tomorrow starts my Summer schedule.  The rhythm is going to take a bit getting used to, especially given my desire and dedication to eating healthy from home.  But I set myself up for success by shopping this evening.  I have fresh fruit and veggies, lots of whole grains, nuts, low fat cheeses and a spectacular partner to support and work with me.

Late April, I started shaping what the Summer would look like.  It seems to be coming together the way I planned.  I wanted to do more massage therapy.  I wasn’t sure how it was all going to work, but I just started TALKING about it.  Lo and behold, Sunday, an former client called for an appointment. 

I think that is the way the food is turning out as well.  I was curious about what it would be like to eat at home for a whole week.  This is NOT a usual habit for me, most of our meals are out.  But I just started TALKING like I was going to change.  Then what I said I would do started to happen.  So hubby and I set out to see what the week would be like…and we did it!  A complete, glorious week of down-home (not-cho-mama’s crisco-soaked-refined-vein-cloggers) but healthy-getcher-heart-lovin’ whole-food yummy yum!

And today, with a new stock of food to get us through another week, I will layer on the challenge of living out of the home but eating from the home.  I don’t know how it will happen….AND ANYONE HAVING ANY IDEAS TO SHARE…GO FOR IT!….but I will take it one day at a time and go from there.  Baby steps….and one bite at a time.
