Eating and Dieting

So I've been thinking about this new diet that Al and Diana are doing and I have a couple suggestions.  On your low calorie days you should choose your food very carefully.  You are not going to want to feel really hungry all day so why not choose foods that are full of fiber and leave you feeling fuller.  Here are some examples of foods:    Fresh Apples, Pears, Grapefruit, Raspberries,Bran cereal, Brown rice, Oatmeal (as opposed to cold cereal that will leave you feeling hungry an hour after you eat), Lentils, Edemame (soybeans), squash, spinach, potato with skin, peas.  You can't go wrong really with fruits, veggies and whole grains.

Second idea is to sign up for Bountiful Baskets.  We have a pick up site in Nibley now (I'm helping there).  Every week you get a huge variety of fruits and veggies, for a killer deal.  It costs 16.50 and you get so much food.  It is well worth the price.  You need to sign up on Monday's at 1:30 to be sure to get a basket.  They only have so many at each site.  Let me know if you have questions.  Oh the website is... bountifulbaskets.org
