Reinvent Your Nutrition and Live a more abundant lifestyle.
A word about eating healthy -
There is so much information and misinformation about nutrition, much of which is contradictory, that it can be very, very confusing. Yet, there are some basic principles which, when followed, will totally add to your success in whatever you do. You will have more energy, be able to think better, and have a general sense of well being that you will not have if you just eat without a plan.

Donna's Simple Eating Rules
1. As a general rule, the closer you eat to strictly raw organic foods, the healthier you will be. It's great to feel good by avoiding processed foods.
2. Avoid white and brown sugar, white flour, and fried foods. Once that is accomplished, look at avoiding or reducing wheat, corn, and soy. You may also want to avoid milk products as a general rule.
3. Eat REAL food! Shakes or smoothies with real food are great. Adding protein powder is fine, but since it can be easier than cooking sometimes, have at least two real meals a day.
4. Eat when you are hungry and for good nutrition, and find out the root causes for other reasons you eat.
a. Stress (Just identify it and find another outlet.)
b. The food will go to waste. (You would rather it go to your waist?)
c. You don't want to hurt Aunt Susie's feelings by not eating her apple pie. (By the way, she probably will respect you.)
d. The children in a third world country are starving. (Is your eating the food really going to help them. I used to tell my mom when I was little, "Send it to them!")
e. It is also good to fast at least 12 hours a day to allow your body to process and repair.
5. Be aware, even track, what you eat at least a week here or there. If you really want to lose weight, get good nutrition, and track it every day. You just cannot always remember and you tell yourself, "I didn't eat that much," when you really DID!
Use an app or a website to do the tracking. You can even plan out your whole day and then stick to your plan. This eliminates adding extra snacks, etc.
In this day and age, it has got to be simple. This will help you to keep track of weird sauces, dressings, and "secret" ingredients that can really add up.
And if you seriously plan to lose weight:
AVOID FAD DIETS! They often have unhealthy eating plans with packaged and processed foods. And, unfortunately, most people gain the weight back and more.
