Weekly Habit for December 25
Christmas is here, and so is the food! No, I’m not going to even suggest that you pass on the holiday favorites. I’m not going to, and I’m not going to ask anyone else to either.
For this week, let’s resolve to eat only healthy snacks. If I eat between meals or after dinner, I’m going to limit my snacking to fruits, vegetables, or something equally healthy. Fruit salad is one of our favorites for the holidays, so i’ll be eating that and passing on the chips, dip, and leftover desserts.
What do we do about last week’s habit? That’s entirely up to you. I plan on sticking with it and trying to turn my week-long habit into a real habit. If you don’t want to do that or don’t think it’s benefitting you, by all means don’t. If I’ve learned anything at all about weight loss, it’s that I have to find what works for me, and so do you.
Here’s my fruit salad recipe. Feel free to add or substitute fruits that you prefer. Adjust amounts based on your preferences. (If nothing else, my recipes tend to be very laid back).
- Oranges (peeled), or use mandarin oranges
- Grapefruit (peeled)
- Grapes
- Bananas
- Apples
- Walnuts (or any nut you prefer)
- Mini-marshmallows
Mix all the ingredients together, in whatever amount you like. I tend to go light on the nuts and marshmallows. Then, I add some juice to the salad as a sweetener. Orange or grape juice works well, but you can use whatever you prefer. Usually a quarter cup or so is plenty.
This salad is great fresh or if you let it set for an hour or so. The longer it sets, the juicier it becomes. You also run the risk of having the fruit start to brown. It’s usually okay for most of the day if you don’t mind your bananas being a little soft.
Enjoy, and happy snacking!
