Food Shopping

My entire house is full of healthy eaters, which means whole wheat everything, fat free sugar free, low fat for every food. My mom sent me food shopping so I had to be careful with what I needed to buy. Walking up and down the isles you have to routes, the good tasting sugary and salty foods, or fruits, veggies and whole grain options. When you go food shopping it is important to replace your gushers for grapes, oreos for oranges, and chips for cantaloupe. You can still buy things you love but do it the right way. For example, when choosing milk, trade your whole milk for fat free or reduced fat milk. If you still want to incorporate pasta in your meals, get whole wheat pasta instead of normal pasta. If you need chips, they offer reduced fat. Also make sure to stop by the produce section and go nuts. Get every type of fruit or vegetable imagined, this way when you feel hungry grab an apple or substitute that side of french fries for broccoli and low-fat cheese. Even orange juice is high in sugar, but they do offer low sugar orange juice. Take some time when you shop to really look at your calories and sugar intake. It is crucial not to just throw whatever looks good in the shopping cart. Tonight for dinner I will be cooking grilled chicken with whole wheat pasta with a little tomato sauce. To drink I chose diet coke instead of regular coke. You can drink diet sodas but only drink alot of diet sodas because they will leave you feeling bloated and uncomfortable. Just remember when shopping, shop smart!
