You don't have to give up the foods you love...

Posted Feb 03 2012 12:00am

to get fit! Welcome to today's Love post!




When we start a new health plan or make changes in our food and fitness, we often view it as giving up things we love in order to see results. In an effort to create true change and love every step of our growth, let's instead think of making healthy substitutions that still let us enjoy our old faves.

Case in point: I absolutely love a bowl of cereal with some non-dairy milk, the sugary the better. Now I know good and well that despite the fact that it may be whole grain or high fiber or whatever, most conventional store-bought cereal is nothing but fitness sabotage.

Loving solution:
Create a satisfying version of an old fave that cuts down on calories, fat, sugar, and so on. Here's how I enjoy cereal now!

*sprouted grain cereal like 
*puffed millet
*quinoa flakes
*lots of fresh fruit in the bowl (bananas, berries)
*superfoods like goji berries
*seeds like chia, hemp, or flax
*unsweetened non-dairy milk





What loving substitutions do you make?
