Diet Pitfall

I have started out 2011 on the right foot. I am SO motivated to go to the gym! I have been going six times a week for 4 weeks - WHOAH! Exercise is only HALF of My Health Recipe. Exercise is the ingredients, but without the instructions the end product is not guaranteed to be edible. So let's talk about a common struggle.

Common struggle: Working out hard = hungry + tired = poor food choices

I need to make snacking easy and delicious, otherwise I am going to cave in to eating some not so great for me stuff (like bread with brummel n brown (butter spread type thing) - YUM). This morning, I took my prune baby food plastic containers (see Choc Chip recipe for how I use prunes as a fat substitute), that were empty, and filled them with trail mix. THis will help me keep track of how much I am eating since each container is a 1/4c. PLUS I need to drink more water! Ok - mission get diet under control is in full effect!
