Beef, Pork or Poultry?

The process of changing your lifestyle when it comes to your daily diet and food intake is always evolving. You will constantly learn about better food choices and the value they can bring to your healthy eating habits. When it comes to Beef, Pork or Poultry I lean towards Poultry. Pork is my last choice and Beef I rarely consume as well.

Poultry, chicken and turkey are my choices. I even prefer leaner chicken portions of breasts and wings, the white meat of chicken. Dark meat portions tend to have more fat and frankly in my opinion the pieces can be bitter to the taste as well. This of course if my opinion and choice. You may feel very different about the taste.

Pork Can be High in Sodium and Saturated Fats

While pork is rich in several important vitamins and nutrients, it can also be high in sodium and saturated fats, two things that should be avoided as part of a healthy diet.

I try to make sure that at least one or two of my meals a day contain no form of poultry or meat. It's not difficult to do and I believe it is beneficial to my digestive system. If you're going to consume these meats and poultry try to eat them broiled or baked. Grilled meats can be healthier as well with lean meats and in moderation.

This lifetime change takes some time to get used to, but I want to treat my body better. I want to take care of it. My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and should be given the best treatment. Don't you think so?

I endeavor to drink more than 64 ounces of water daily. The more water I drink the better. I have to admit I do love water enhancers. I prefer liquid Crush Orange and Pineapple, but I also indulge in other flavors. I do use the enhancers in moderation. A nice lite flavor is good. A little flavor goes a long way! I don't drink pop or soda pop at all. There is no real nutritional value in soda pop. I don't drink sugary juices. I no longer drink coffee. I do like to make ice blended drinks using sugar free flavoring and unsweetened almond milk. Drinks that are yummy and refreshing, especially during the summer months. Using fresh fruits in these blended drinks is nice as well. I don't use sugar to sweeten my drinks. I use some

The Struggle is Real

The Struggle is Real every single day. You will feel tempted to make poor food choices. Somedays you will give in to the temptation. Remember, tomorrow is a new day. Start afresh and keep going. Never Give Up and Never Quit! I've had many unsuccessful days, but I refuse to throw away my many good days for the bad days. Forgive yourself, pat yourself on the back and focus on your weight loss journey. Yes, you will get tired of not being able to eat whatever you want to eat when you want to eat it. Eating that way is what has gotten you to the point you're at now and that's endeavoring to lose all those excess pounds you've piled on your body over the years. Living a gluttonous lifestyle in any way is a sin against God. When it comes to a gluttonous eating lifestyle, you're literally killing yourself with every excessive bite of food you take. We should eat to live and not live to eat. Food is not a comforter but a means to provide our body with necessary nutrition

Change Your Mind and Eat Healthier

Weight Loss, and a Lifestyle Change are choices I made with determination. I had to decide to change my mind and eat healthier. I also have to eat less. I'm not looking for a magic pill or a surgeons knife to help me out of my lifetime of poor choices. I've been overweight my entire life. Chubby child, overweight adolescent, obese teenager and morbidly obese adult. I put every bite of food into my own mouth. I ate for pure enjoyment without the slightest thought about healthy food choices. So, I should also do what it takes to make the great change. Lose the weight, eat healthier and do a bit of exercise myself. I've decided that I'd like to share this Journey with anyone who is interested in reading about it. I'm not a professional writer, just someone who wants to share with others. I hope what I share is helpful. I am not at the beginning of my journey. I'd say that I'm about 5 years into the journey. My weight loss journey started with me deciding to cut
