If we are still on the fruit challenge, I had the following today: 1 bananna 1 gala apple 1 white nectarine.

FROZEN GRAPES Put a bunch of grapes in the freezer and take out a few and eat them when you have a sweet craving. Freezing the grapes does something, I'm not exactly sure what, but they seem sweeter. It's also a nice cool treat in the heat of summer. It will also help with our fruit challenge (Crazy Canucks). Try them, I…

This site is great. Make sure to look around and see all the tools that are available to you.

You might want to add some whole grains to get a little more fibre and some healthy fat. It can be as easy as some no flour squirrly bread with a Tbsp of lower fat peanut butter; or a multigrain pita with some humous; or some flax seeds in your salad with a little extra virgin olive oil and some balsamic vinegar.

oooh, red onion. I'm going to add that next time I go shopping.

Looks good. I try it out sometime this week.

I am still within my 1200 calories for the day. I had a healthy dinner to make up for the sampling. Steamed rice topped with a…
