A new way to eat for weight loss!

Yesterday I went to a more whole foods type of store. I want to start looking at a new way to shop and prepare for weight loss. Here are some guidelines I used -- it was a different perspective on weight loss:

1) No junk food that was full of scary ingredients. I did buy cookies but they had only organic ingredients that I could easily pronounce.
2) I bought marinades for salmon and chicken but only whole food products that included no sugar or saturated/trans fats.
3) I went nuts for the fresh fruits and veggies.

I am so excited about my weight loss journey. I did not sacrifice one thing in honor of losing weight. I am actually eating healthy. If I can get this thought of being good to my body and my future health (so what if I eat Newman's own cookies and snacks), it will stop me from making bad choices when I have no willpower. Weight loss and good eating will be a way of life rather than a continuous plan!

My new motto is to be good to myself and body and the weight loss will follow. At the very least, I will be healthier!
