Breakfast
Breakfast is very important. A person needs to eat in the morning to rev up the metabolism and set the pace for the day. A healthy breakfast is essential.
What I've been eating this week has turned out to be truly delicious. I've been eating toasted oat cereal with skim milk and fresh blueberries. Absolutely delicious and full of fiber. Funny thing I've noticed since I quit eating sugar: fruit tastes sweeter!
In fact, all foods taste better.
Dean and I met my friend Catherine and her husband Ed at the Redlight Cafe last night for some live bluegrass music. I had a diet Coke, the first diet drink in a long time. The drink tasted really good and almost too sweet. This wouldn't have happened if I was still consuming huge amounts of sugar.
Try eating a non-sugared whole grain cereal for breakfast with some fresh fruit. Try vanilla flavored soy milk if you don't like milk. This breakfast keeps me full and satiated until my lunch time.
Another really good food to eat is oatmeal, plain oatmeal, with fruit. I'd rather eat this in the winter months when it's cold outside, but I've got a recipe for a cold cereal you can make out of oats.
Take a half cup of oats and a half cup of water and mix them together in a bowl. Cover the bowl, place it in the refrigerator, and allow the oats to soak up the water overnight. In the morning, cut up some fruit and mix it in the oats. YUMMY!!! And so good for the heart.
Trust me, once you get sugar out of your system, things like plain oats taste so good you'll wish you've never eaten sugar before in your life!
Ciao for now!
