How I ate healthy while babysitting :)
January 27, 2012
Good evening everyone! So, this is what my day of babysitting from 1-11pm looks like. I packed lots of healthy foods, and even found 1 treat at the house that was well worth eating!
Lunch
Oatmeal with banana and one pack of omega-3 trek mix from TJ’s… I love my oatmeal 🙂
Snacks, orange and carrots with tomato basil hummus (best hummus!)
Petite Treat tonight was two chocolate truffles while reading about the “Snob Diet.” I instantly deserved them, and they absolutely satisfied my sweet tooth! If any of you have a Glamour Magazine, I’m sure you’ve read all about it! Great concept I think 🙂
-Choose high-quality food
-Enjoy that food
-Don’t deny cravings
-If it’s not truly delicious, don’t eat it
Dinner was delicious! I had gluten-free pasta with chicken, tomato basil marinara, brussel sprouts, and a tiny bit of fresh parmesan cheese
Snack-Â edamame, then another hour later, apple sauce
By the time I got home at about 11:30 I was super hungry again (fast metabolism?) and I had this LARABAR. I feel really proud of myself for eating healthy while babysitting, because that’s my biggest struggle! For some reason, it’s so much harder when you’re around kids (maybe their cupboards?!)
