Day 9: Starting fresh

Day 9: Starting fresh
Today I started the day with a brisk walk. On the way back, I picked blueberries from my bushes, and added those to a bowl of
shredded wheat with cinnamon. That was a nice start to the day. Today will be a long day, so I'm planning ahead for meals. I'll
have some tomatoes from my garden with cottage cheese for lunch, and make a banana, protein smoothie for dinner. I'll slice some
fresh bell peppers to add to a salad, and have a peach and walnuts for a snack. Perhaps this evening, when it cools down, I'll take
a long walk. And, I will take 5 minutes to meditate tonight. I will pull myself away from the TV and do something healthy instead.
Tip #9: Growing food motivates you to eat smart. It's so satisfying to add a tasty tomato from the garden to a salad, or a handful
of fresh basil and oregano to pasta sauce. Even if you have only a few containers, try growing something you will enjoy serving
yourself.
