Nutrition Focus: More Vegetables
Ack! Yes, more vegetables! In Week 2 you added a vegetables to at least one of your meals. Today, your challenge is to shoot for 2 servings of vegetables (or more!). Here are some simple ways to get a little more veggies into your day:
- Bag of salad. Is there anything easier than ripping open a bag and tossing some already-made salad into a bowl?
- Edamame. These are green vegetable soy beans and they taste good--seriously. You can buy them frozen or fresh. Visit our Japanese Food Site for recipe ideas.
- Winter squash
Whatever you choose, keep in mind that a serving is smaller than you think--if you have a cup of salad, that's 2 servings. See how easy this really is?
Motivation
If you found it difficult to eat your vegetables today, here's a little extra motivation for you: vegetables can help you lose weight. Eating high fiber, nutrient dense foods helps you feel full, which means you'll naturally eat less. Remember--eating healthy is not about instant gratification. Sure, a donut would make you happy in the moment, but healthy foods can make you feel better all day long.
