Today is Day 14 of our 21-Day Food Challenge. Just one more week to go! How are you doing? I’m actually doing alright. This weekend, I did have a little “cheat” but also did some extra cardio the very next day.

We celebrated my daughter’s birthday with family by spending a day at the beach. I’m glad it was my responsibility to buy food for this celebration because I could make sure we had lots of snacks and choices that were NOT on the “Do Not Eat” list.

Yes, I did have a cupcake, but other than that, I was pretty good about staying off the “Do Not Eat” list. I bought whole grain bread to make sandwiches and had turkey breast as well as chicken breast and peanut butter and jam for those who wanted. I also bought uncrustables for the kids so they could just grab something on the go because a lot of times, they don’t want to sit and eat. They want to play. With the uncrustables, they didn’t need to grab a plate, fork, and napkins to have a bite to eat. They could just grab an uncrustable open it up and eat – great “finger food.”

We also had chips and salsa, crackers, and fruits!

Like I said, lots of great snacks to munch on while spending the day at the beach.

So…how is your 21-Day Challenge going? Now that you have just a week left and have worked hard to “clean up” what you put into your body, do you think you’ll continue with your new nutrition habits?
