I want to share some habits that are working for me on my diet and lifestyle journey.  What seems to be key in my progress is planning.  I plan out my workouts on a weekly basis and also food too.  Since I get up so early to swim 3x per week I make 3 servings of cooked oatmeal and divide it up into individual containers. On my swimming days I reheat and add protein powder and rice milk which only takes about 2-3 minutes. For my lunches I prepare my salads on Sunday night.  My daughter takes her lunch too so I make 6-8 salads at a time.  You can buy storage containers which hold the dressing separate and it keeps your salad from getting soggy. I try to omit the dressing all together.<br \/>\nClean dry spinach works well and I like to add green peppers, carrots, chick peas, chicken and olives.\u00a0 This week I used peppers, ground beef, salsa and rinsed black beans.\u00a0 My salads are ready to go in my refrigerator and I can grab them and head out the door.\u00a0 I have no excuse\u00a0 to go out for lunch or snack on bad foods at the office.\u00a0 When I make them for the kids I add dried fruit or feta cheese too.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"width: 235px\">\n\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Ready for the Frig\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lorismith.biz\/gallery\/var\/resizes\/blog_photos\/IMG_1326.JPG?m=1326486283\" alt=\"\" width=\"235\" height=\"314\" \/>\n\t<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ready for the Frig<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>This has eliminated so much stress about what to eat for me.  It might seem a little redundant to eat the same salad every day, but so far it is working.\u00a0 I am now working on the same menu planning for evening.  It is a little more difficult with kids and sports practice and trying to eat as a family too.  I will let you know how it works out.\u00a0 Good Luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First of all I just have to say that I am not a writer so I hope this isn&#8217;t too dry and boring.
