My workout revamp has me thinking about my eating habits, which are usually pretty outstanding. Jonathan teases me that I only eat twigs, plants, berries..etc :) But I do have unhealthy habits, so I took a quiz to find out what kind of eater I am. I was pretty impressed, it defined me quite well....Nostalgia Nosher
You love the way certain foods recapture the feelings of holidays past.
What triggers your eating:
Family get-togethers, your mother's recipe file. 'A lot of holiday foods bring back strong memories,' says Tammy Baker, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association. 'That emotional attachment is hard to resist.'
Stay-slim strategies:
Skip what isn't special 'Instead of blindly helping yourself to everything on the table, you might ask yourself, "What are the three things I would really like to have?" and take those," If you still can't choose? 'Remind yourself, "I know what chocolate (or bean dip or potato salad) tastes like. That's something I can have any day, so right now I'll have something else I really want."'
FYI.. I also found out what kind of eater Jonathan is....
The 'Inhaler': this person eats a four-course meal in under 10 minutes. Once he's done, he has a hard time remembering what the food tasted like.
This past Saturday night my mom and I booked a hotel for the next 2 days in Chicago, I guess you could say it was a spontaneous trip! We stayed right on Michigan ave - we shopped, went to lunch, went on a architecture boat tour. We also got to visit with my old teammate Callie and Jonathan's sister Stephanie. We went to a dinner and a comedy club with Steph and out to dinner with Callie and her boyfriend, I got to see their new apartment which made me very happy. It was a great trip, my mom and I had a great time!!
