{7} Healthy Eating

Eating right sounds so easy, though when you get down to it, its about willpower. I have been struggling with being an overeater my whole life. Though, as you probably read from a previous post that I am putting an end to that. Lately when I want a snack I reach for the carrots, or some other easy to snack on food. Baby carrots come in the right size bag that I can split up into a few tupperware dishes, so that my son knows he can have some, and I can just pull one out and eat it.

Eating vegetables all day makes me feel better, and to be completely honest I noticed my skin looks better. I am trying to counteract the aging of my skin that the cigarettes cause. Since I refuse to quit smoking, I have to do something to stay looking young and beautiful!

I have started to worry about the future of my body rather than living in the moment. I usually just say, I'll start my diet tomorrow. Though, tomorrow has come and gone many times over. Right now, I just need to do. So, I started keeping track of my food that I eat on this website called Calorie Count. It is pretty cool, you can input activities you do, and the foods you eat. It calculates it all for you. I like that you can also keep track of the water you drink. Fitday, had an option to add up the calories you eat and the calories you burn, but you couldn't keep track of water. Well, there was a thing to do it but I could never get it to work.

Anyhow, there is a monkey jumping on the couch after he was told not to, I must go.
